High efficiency uniform positron beam loading in a hollow channel plasma wakefield accelerator
Shiyu Zhou, Jianfei Hua, Qianqian Su +3
We propose a novel positron beam loading regime in a hollow plasma channel that can efficiently accelerate beam with high gradient and narrow energy spread. In this regime, t…
Ultra-Bright Electron Bunch Injection in a Plasma Wakefield Driven by a Superluminal Flying Focus Electron Beam
Fei Li, Thamine N. Dalichaouch, Jacob R. Pierce +5
We propose a new method for self-injection of high-quality electron bunches in the plasma wakefield structure in the blowout regime utilizing a "flying focus" produced by a drive b…
Extended particle absorber for efficient modeling of intense laser-solid interactions
Kyle G. Miller, Joshua May, Frederico Fiuza +1
An extended thermal particle boundary condition is devised to more efficiently and accurately model laser-plasma interactions in overdense plasmas. Particle-in-cell simulations of…
A multi-sheath model for highly nonlinear plasma wakefields
Thamine N. Dalichaouch, Xinlu Xu, Adam Tableman +3
An improved description for nonlinear plasma wakefields with phase velocities near the speed of light is presented and compared against fully kinetic particle-in-cell simulations.…
Numerical heating in particle-in-cell simulations with Monte Carlo binary collisions
E. Paulo Alves, Warren B. Mori, Frederico Fiuza
The binary Monte Carlo (MC) collision algorithm is a standard and robust method to include binary Coulomb collision effects in particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations of plasmas. Here,…
In Situ Generation of High-Energy Spin-Polarized Electrons in a Beam-Driven Plasma Wakefield Accelerator
Zan Nie, Fei Li, Felipe Morales +9
In situ generation of a high-energy, high-current, spin-polarized electron beam is an outstanding scientific challenge to the development of plasma-based accelerators for high-ener…
