Achievements and New Challenges for CERN's Digital LLRF Family
M. E. Angoletta, S. Albright, A. Findlay +4
An innovative digital Low-Level RF (LLRF) family has been developed at CERN and deployed on several circular machines. Operation of CERN's PS Booster (PSB), Low Energy Ion Ring (LE…
Proton Driven Plasma Wakefield Acceleration in AWAKE
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…
Experimental observation of proton bunch modulation in a plasma, at varying plasma densities
E. Adli, A. Ahuja, O. Apsimon +109
We give direct experimental evidence for the observation of the full transverse self-modulation of a relativistic proton bunch propagating through a dense plasma. The bunch exits t…
Experimental observation of plasma wakefield growth driven by the seeded self-modulation of a proton bunch
M. Turner, the AWAKE Collaboration
We measure the effects of transverse wakefields driven by a relativistic proton bunch in plasma with densities of and \unit[]{electrons/cm}…
Acceleration of electrons in the plasma wakefield of a proton bunch
The AWAKE Collaboration, E. Adli, A. Ahuja +91
High energy particle accelerators have been crucial in providing a deeper understanding of fundamental particles and the forces that govern their interactions. In order to increase…
A 1 GHz RF Trigger Unit implemented in FPGA logic
D. Barrientos, J. Molendijk, G. Hagmann
Applications of Trigger Units (TU) can be found in almost all accelerators at CERN. The requirements in terms of operating frequencies, configuration or modes of operation change f…
