Wakefield-driven filamentation of warm beams in plasma

Erwin Walter, John P. Farmer, Martin S. Weidl +2

Charged and quasi-neutral beams propagating through an unmagnetised plasma are subject to numerous collisionless instabilities on the small scale of the plasma skin depth. The elec…

Elevating electron energy gain and betatron X-ray emission in proton-driven wakefield acceleration

Hossein Saberi, Guoxing Xia, Linbo Liang +2

The long proton beams present at CERN have the potential to evolve into a train of microbunches through the self-modulation instability process. The resonant wakefield generated by…

Preliminary Investigation of a Higgs Factory based on Proton-Driven Plasma Wakefield Acceleration

John P Farmer, Allen Caldwell, Alexander Pukhov

A Higgs Factory is considered the highest priority next collider project by the high-energy physics community. Very advanced designs based on radio-frequency cavities exist, and va…

Development of the Self-Modulation Instability of a Relativistic Proton Bunch in Plasma

L. Verra, S. Wyler, T. Nechaeva +7

Self-modulation is a beam-plasma instability that is useful to drive large-amplitude wakefields with bunches much longer than the plasma skin depth. We present experimental results…

Acceleration of an electron bunch with a non-Gaussian transverse profile in a quasilinear plasma wakefield

Linbo Liang, Guoxing Xia, Alexander Pukhov +1

Beam-driven plasma wakefield accelerators typically use the external injection scheme to ensure controllable beam quality at injection. However, the externally injected witness bun…

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…
