Simulation and Experimental Study of Proton Bunch Self-Modulation in Plasma with Linear Density Gradients
P. I. Morales Guzmán, P. Muggli, R. Agnello +88
We present numerical simulations and experimental results of the self-modulation of a long proton bunch in a plasma with linear density gradients along the beam path. Simulation re…
Long range propagation of ultrafast, ionizing laser pulses in a resonant nonlinear medium
G. Demeter, J. T. Moody, M. Aladi +18
We study the propagation of 0.05-1 TW power, ultrafast laser pulses in a 10 meter long rubidium vapor cell. The central wavelength of the laser is resonant with the line of r…
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…
Predicting the Trajectory of a Relativistic Electron Beam for External Injection in Plasma Wakefields
Felipe Peña Asmus, Francesco Maria Velotti, Marlene Turner +5
We use beam position measurements over the first part of the AWAKE electron beamline, together with beamline modeling, to deduce the beam average momentum and to predict the beam p…

Edda Gschwendtner, Marlene Turner, the AWAKE Collaboration
In this article, we briefly summarize the experiments performed during the first Run of the Advanced Wakefield Experiment, AWAKE, at CERN (European Organization for Nuclear Researc…
The Compact Linear ee Collider (CLIC): Physics Potential
