Staging of High-Gradient Wakefield Accelerators
arXiv:2007.05258 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevAccelBeams.24.014801
Abstract
Accelerating particles to high energies with a high-gradient wakefield accelerator may require use of multiple stages. Coupling beams from one stage to another can be difficult due to high divergence and non-negligible energy spreads. We review the challenges, technical requirements and currently proposed methods for solving the staging problem.
