Plasma lens for focusing attosecond pulses

E. Svirplys, H. Jones, G. Loisch +8

Attosecond pulses provide unique opportunities for studies of time-resolved electron dynamics. However, focusing these pulses, typically ranging from the vacuum ultraviolet to the…

Recovery time of a plasma-wakefield accelerator

R. D'Arcy, J. Chappell, J. Beinortaite +14

The interaction of intense particle bunches with plasma can give rise to plasma wakes capable of sustaining gigavolt-per-metre electric fields, which are orders of magnitude higher…

Matching small functions using centroid jitter and two beam position monitors

C. A. Lindstrøm, R. D'Arcy, M. J. Garland +5

Matching to small beta functions is required to preserve emittance in plasma accelerators. The plasma wake provides strong focusing fields, which typically require beta functions o…

A tunable plasma-based energy dechirper

R. D'Arcy, S. Wesch, A. Aschikhin +23

A tunable plasma-based energy dechirper has been developed at FLASHForward to remove the correlated energy spread of a 681~MeV electron bunch. Through the interaction of the bunch…
