Tolerances to driver-witness misalignment in a quasilinear plasma wakefield accelerator

T. C. Wilson, J. Farmer, K. Lotov +1

Plasma-based accelerators offer high accelerating gradients and scalability through staging or long plasma sources, which makes them good candidates for future accelerator and coll…

Self-Adaptive Stabilization and Quality Boost for Electron Beams from All-Optical Plasma Wakefield Accelerators

D. Campbell, T. Heinemann, A. Dickson +14

Shot-to-shot fluctuations in electron beams from laser wakefield accelerators present a significant challenge for applications. Here, we show that instead of using such fluctuating…

Measurement of the emittance of accelerated electron bunches at the AWAKE experiment

D. A. Cooke, F. Pannell, G. Zevi Della Porta +81

The vertical plane transverse emittance of accelerated electron bunches at the AWAKE experiment at CERN has been determined, using three different methods of data analysis. This is…

Hosing of a long relativistic particle bunch in plasma

T. Nechaeva, L. Verra, J. Pucek +4

Experimental results show that hosing of a long particle bunch in plasma can be induced by wakefields driven by a short, misaligned preceding bunch. Hosing develops in the plane of…

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…

Controlled Growth of the Self-Modulation of a Relativistic Proton Bunch in Plasma

L. Verra

A long, narrow, relativistic charged particle bunch propagating in plasma is subject to the self-modulation (SM) instability. We show that SM of a proton bunch can be seeded by the…

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…

Path to AWAKE: Evolution of the concept

A. Caldwell, E. Adli, L. Amorim +118

This report describes the conceptual steps in reaching the design of the AWAKE experiment currently under construction at CERN. We start with an introduction to plasma wakefield ac…
