Compton photons at the GeV scale from self-aligned collisions with a plasma mirror
Aimé Matheron, Jean-Raphaël Marquès, Vincent Lelasseux +34
With today's multi-petawatt lasers, testing quantum electrodynamics (QED) in the strong field regime, where the electric field exceeds the Schwinger critical field in the rest fram…
Oscillation damper for misaligned witness in plasma wakefield accelerator
K. V. Lotov, I. Yu. Kargapolov, P. V. Tuev
If a laser- or particle beam-driven plasma wakefield accelerator operates in the linear or moderately nonlinear regime, injecting an externally produced particle bunch (witness) to…
LCODE: Quasistatic code for simulating long-term evolution of three-dimensional plasma wakefields
I. Yu. Kargapolov, N. V. Okhotnikov, I. A. Shalimova +2
A recently developed three-dimensional version of the quasistatic code LCODE has a novel feature that enables high-accuracy simulations of the long-term evolution of waves in plasm…
Transition between Instability and Seeded Self-Modulation of a Relativistic Particle Bunch in Plasma
F. Batsch, P. Muggli, R. Agnello +94
We use a relativistic ionization front to provide various initial transverse wakefield amplitudes for the self-modulation of a long proton bunch in plasma. We show experimentally t…
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…
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…
