Measurement of the emittance of accelerated electron bunches at the AWAKE experiment

D. A. Cooke, F. Pannell, G. Zevi Della Porta +81

The vertical plane transverse emittance of accelerated electron bunches at the AWAKE experiment at CERN has been determined, using three different methods of data analysis. This is…

Hosing of a long relativistic particle bunch in plasma

T. Nechaeva, L. Verra, J. Pucek +4

Experimental results show that hosing of a long particle bunch in plasma can be induced by wakefields driven by a short, misaligned preceding bunch. Hosing develops in the plane of…

Development of the Self-Modulation Instability of a Relativistic Proton Bunch in Plasma

L. Verra, S. Wyler, T. Nechaeva +7

Self-modulation is a beam-plasma instability that is useful to drive large-amplitude wakefields with bunches much longer than the plasma skin depth. We present experimental results…
