Measurement of the Saturation Length of the Self-Modulation Instability
A. Clairembaud, M. Turner, M. Bergamaschi +8
The self-modulation (SM) instability transforms a long charged particle bunch traveling in plasma into a train of microbunches that resonantly drives large-amplitude wakefields. We…

Experimental Observation of Motion of Ions in a Resonantly Driven Plasma Wakefield Accelerator
M. Turner, E. Walter, C. Amoedo +15
We show experimentally that an effect of motion of ions, observed in a plasma-based accelerator, depends inversely on the plasma ion mass. The effect appears within a single wakefi…
