Single Particle Detection System for Strong-Field QED Experiments
F. C. Salgado, N. Cavanagh, M. Tamburini +23
Measuring signatures of strong-field quantum electrodynamics (SF-QED) processes in an intense laser field is an experimental challenge: it requires detectors to be highly sensitive…
Dissipation of electron-beam-driven plasma wakes
Rafal Zgadzaj, Zhengyan Li, M. C. Downer +10
Metre-scale plasma wakefield accelerators have imparted energy gain approaching 10 gigaelectronvolts to single nano-Coulomb electron bunches. To reach useful average currents, howe…
Plasma-photonic spatiotemporal synchronization of relativistic electron and laser beams
Paul Scherkl, Alexander Knetsch, Thomas Heinemann +23
Modern particle accelerators and their applications increasingly rely on precisely coordinated interactions of intense charged particle and laser beams. Femtosecond-scale synchroni…
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…
9 GeV Energy Gain in a Beam-Driven Plasma Wakefield Accelerator
M Litos, E Adli, J M Allen +15
An electron beam has gained a maximum energy of 9 GeV per particle in a 1.3 m-long electron beam-driven plasma wakefield accelerator. The amount of charge accelerated in the spectr…
Experimental demonstration of wakefield effects in a THz planar diamond accelerating structure
S. Antipov, C. Jing, A. Kanareykin +5
We have directly measured THz wakefields induced by a subpicosecond, intense relativistic electron bunch in a diamond loaded accelerating structure via the wakefield acceleration m…
Experimental Observation of Energy Modulation in Electron Beams Passing Through Terahertz Dielectric Wakefield Structures
S. Antipov, C. Jing, M. Fedurin +6
We report observation of a strong wakefield induced energy modulation in an energy-chirped electron bunch passing through a dielectric-lined waveguide. This modulation can be effec…
Transverse Beam Size Effects on Longitudinal Profile Reconstruction
G. Andonian, E. Hemsing, A. Murokh +5
The use of coherent transition radiation autocorrelation methods to determine bunch length and profile information is examined with the compressed electron beam at the BNL ATF. A b…
