Report on the Advanced Linear Collider Study Group (ALEGRO) Workshop 2026
L. Verra, P. Muggli, B. Cross +56
The 7th ALEGRO workshop, hosted by INFN Frascati National Laboratories from 3rd to 5th March 2026, brought together the international Advanced Novel Accelerators (ANA) community to…
An electron injector for the Electron-Ion Collider based on proton-driven plasma wakefield acceleration
J. P. Farmer, H. Jaworska, A. Caldwell +5
We describe an electron bunch injector scheme based on proton-driven plasma wakefield acceleration for the Electron-Ion Collider. The proton bunches needed to drive the plasma wake…
Seeding of Self-Modulation using Truncated Seed Bunches as a Path to High Gradient Acceleration
N. Z. van Gils, E. Belli, M. Bergamaschi +11
This manuscript proposes a method to enable controlled high-gradient particle acceleration when requiring self-modulation of the drive bunch. While electron bunch seeding of self-m…
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…
