Multi-GeV Electron Combs from a Plasma Wakefield Accelerator
Chaojie Zhang, Douglas Storey, Alexander Knetsch +16
Plasma accelerators now produce GeV-class electron beams with brightness and stability sufficient to drive free-electron lasers. Beyond this, they possess a unique yet largely unex…
Collider-quality electron bunches from an all-optical plasma photoinjector
Arohi Jain, Jiayang Yan, Jacob R. Pierce +11
We present a novel approach for generating collider-quality electron bunches using a plasma photoinjector. The approach leverages recently developed techniques for the spatiotempor…
A fully plasma based electron injector for a linear collider or XFEL
Thamine N. Dalichaouch, Xinlu L. Xu, Fei Li +2
We demonstrate through high-fidelity particle-in-cell simulations a simple approach for efficiently generating 20+ GeV electron beams with the necessary charge, energy spread, and…
Wakefield Generation in Hydrogen and Lithium Plasmas at FACET-II: Diagnostics and First Beam-Plasma Interaction Results
D. Storey, C. Zhang, P. San Miguel Claveria +28
Plasma Wakefield Acceleration (PWFA) provides ultrahigh acceleration gradients of 10s of GeV/m, providing a novel path towards efficient, compact, TeV-scale linear colliders and hi…
Generation of meter-scale hydrogen plasmas and efficient, pump-depletion-limited wakefield excitation using 10 GeV electron bunches
C. Zhang, D. Storey, P. San Miguel Claveria +26
High repetition rates and efficient energy transfer to the accelerating beam are important for a future linear collider based on the beam-driven plasma wakefield acceleration schem…
A near-ideal dechirper for plasma-based electron and positron acceleration using a hollow channel plasma
Y. P. Wu, J. F. Hua, C. H. Pai +15
Plasma-based electron and positron wakefield acceleration has made great strides in the past decade. However one major challenge for its applications to coherent light sources and…
High quality electron bunch generation using a longitudinal density-tailored plasma-based accelerator in the three-dimensional blowout regime
X. L. Xu, F. Li, W. An +4
The generation of very high quality electron bunches (high brightness and low energy spread) from a plasma-based accelerator in the three-dimensional blowout regime using self-inje…
Physical mechanism of the transverse instability in radiation pressure ion acceleration
Y. Wan, C. -H. Pai, C. J. Zhang +8
The transverse stability of the target is crucial for obtaining high quality ion beams using the laser radiation pressure acceleration (RPA) mechanism. In this letter, a theoretica…
Colliding ionization injection in a beam driven plasma accelerator
Y. Wan, C. J. Zhang, F. Li +7
The proposal of generating high quality electron bunches via ionization injection triggered by an counter propagating laser pulse inside a beam driven plasma wake is examined via t…
Exact phase space matching for staging plasma and traditional accelerator components using longitudinally tailored plasma profiles
X. L. Xu, Y. P. Wu, C. J. Zhang +10
Phase space matching between two plasma-accelerator (PA) stages and between a PA and a traditional accelerator component is a critical issue for emittance preservation of beams acc…
