The AWAKE Run 2 programme and beyond
Edda Gschwendtner, Konstantin Lotov, Patric Muggli +99
Plasma wakefield acceleration is a promising technology to reduce the size of particle accelerators. Use of high energy protons to drive wakefields in plasma has been demonstrated…
Experimental study of extended timescale dynamics of a plasma wakefield driven by a self-modulated proton bunch
J. Chappell, E. Adli, R. Agnello +96
Plasma wakefield dynamics over timescales up to 800 ps, approximately 100 plasma periods, are studied experimentally at the Advanced Wakefield Experiment (AWAKE). The development o…
Proton beam defocusing in AWAKE: comparison of simulations and measurements
A. A. Gorn, M. Turner, E. Adli +96
In 2017, AWAKE demonstrated the seeded self-modulation (SSM) of a 400 GeV proton beam from the Super Proton Synchrotron (SPS) at CERN. The angular distribution of the protons defle…
Proton Bunch Self-Modulation in Plasma with Density Gradient
F. Braunmüller, T. Nechaeva, AWAKE Collboration
We study experimentally the effect of linear plasma density gradients on the self-modulation of a 400\,GeV proton bunch. Results show that a positive/negative gradient in/decreases…
Measurement and application of electron stripping of ultrarelativistic
D. A. Cooke, J. Bauche, M. Cascella +13
New measurements of the stripping cross-section for ultrarelativistic hydrogen-like lead ions passing through aluminium and silicon have been performed at the Advanced Wakefield ex…
Experimental Study of Wakefields Driven by a Self-Modulating Proton Bunch in Plasma
M. Turner, P. Muggli, the AWAKE Collaboration
We study experimentally the longitudinal and transverse wakefields driven by a highly relativistic proton bunch during self-modulation in plasma. We show that the wakefields' growt…
A magnetic spectrometer to measure electron bunches accelerated at AWAKE
J. Bauche, B. Biskup, M. Cascella +18
A magnetic spectrometer has been developed for the AWAKE experiment at CERN in order to measure the energy distribution of bunches of electrons accelerated in wakefields generated…
Proton Driven Plasma Wakefield Acceleration in AWAKE
Edda Gschwendtner, Marlene Turner, the AWAKE Collaboration
In this article, we briefly summarize the experiments performed during the first Run of the Advanced Wakefield Experiment, AWAKE, at CERN (European Organization for Nuclear Researc…
Particle physics applications of the AWAKE acceleration scheme
A. Caldwell, J. Chappell, P. Crivelli +11
The AWAKE experiment had a very successful Run 1 (2016-8), demonstrating proton-driven plasma wakefield acceleration for the first time, through the observation of the modulation o…
Experimental observation of proton bunch modulation in a plasma, at varying plasma densities
E. Adli, A. Ahuja, O. Apsimon +109
We give direct experimental evidence for the observation of the full transverse self-modulation of a relativistic proton bunch propagating through a dense plasma. The bunch exits t…
Experimental observation of plasma wakefield growth driven by the seeded self-modulation of a proton bunch
M. Turner, the AWAKE Collaboration
We measure the effects of transverse wakefields driven by a relativistic proton bunch in plasma with densities of and \unit[]{electrons/cm}…
Acceleration of electrons in the plasma wakefield of a proton bunch
The AWAKE Collaboration, E. Adli, A. Ahuja +91
High energy particle accelerators have been crucial in providing a deeper understanding of fundamental particles and the forces that govern their interactions. In order to increase…
Physics case of the very high energy electron--proton collider, VHEeP
A. Caldwell, F. Keeble, E. Simpson Dore +1
The possibility of a very high energy electron-proton (VHEeP) collider with a centre-of-mass energy of 9 TeV has been presented at previous workshops. These proceedings briefly sum…
