Acceleration of a Positron Bunch in a Hollow Channel Plasma

Spencer Gessner, Erik Adli, James M. Allen +16

Plasmas are a compelling medium for particle acceleration owing to their natural ability to sustain electric fields that are orders of magnitude larger than those available in conv…

Plasma-photonic spatiotemporal synchronization of relativistic electron and laser beams

Paul Scherkl, Alexander Knetsch, Thomas Heinemann +23

Modern particle accelerators and their applications increasingly rely on precisely coordinated interactions of intense charged particle and laser beams. Femtosecond-scale synchroni…

Electron bunch generation from a plasma photocathode

Aihua Deng, Oliver Karger, Thomas Heinemann +25

Plasma waves generated in the wake of intense, relativistic laser or particle beams can accelerate electron bunches to giga-electronvolt (GeV) energies in centimetre-scale distance…

Measurement of transverse wakefields induced by a misaligned positron bunch in a hollow channel plasma accelerator

C. A. Lindstrøm, E. Adli, J. M. Allen +18

Hollow channel plasma wakefield acceleration is a proposed method to provide high acceleration gradients for electrons and positrons alike: a key to future lepton colliders. Howeve…

9 GeV Energy Gain in a Beam-Driven Plasma Wakefield Accelerator

M Litos, E Adli, J M Allen +15

An electron beam has gained a maximum energy of 9 GeV per particle in a 1.3 m-long electron beam-driven plasma wakefield accelerator. The amount of charge accelerated in the spectr…

Evidence for high-energy and low-emittance electron beams using ionization injection of charge in a plasma wakefield accelerator

N. Vafaei-Najafabadi, W. An, C. E. Clayton +15

Ionization injection in a plasma wakefield accelerator was investigated experimentally using two lithium plasma sources of different lengths. The ionization of the helium gas, used…
