Ion-motion simulations of a plasma-wakefield experiment at FLASHForward
D. Kalvik, P. Drobniak, F. Peña +13
In plasma-based acceleration, an ultra-relativistic particle bunch$\unicode{x2014}$or an intense laser beam$\unicode{x2014}$is used to expel electrons from its propagation path, fo…

Energy Depletion and Re-Acceleration of Driver Electrons in a Plasma-Wakefield Accelerator
F. Peña, C. A. Lindstrøm, J. BeinortaitÄ +13
For plasma-wakefield accelerators to fulfil their potential for cost effectiveness, it is essential that their energy-transfer efficiency be maximized. A key aspect of this efficie…

Emittance preservation in a plasma-wakefield accelerator
C. A. Lindstrøm, J. BeinortaitÄ, J. Björklund Svensson +15
Radio-frequency particle accelerators are engines of discovery, powering high-energy physics and photon science, but are also large and expensive due to their limited accelerating…
