Simulation and Experimental Study of Proton Bunch Self-Modulation in Plasma with Linear Density Gradients
P. I. Morales Guzmán, P. Muggli, R. Agnello +88
We present numerical simulations and experimental results of the self-modulation of a long proton bunch in a plasma with linear density gradients along the beam path. Simulation re…

Seeding of the Self-Modulation in a Long Proton Bunch by Charge Cancellation with a Short Electron Bunch
Mathias Hüther, Patric Muggli
In plasma wakefield accelerators (e.g. AWAKE) the proton bunch self-modulation is seeded by the ionization front of a high-power laser pulse ionizing a vapour and by the resulting…

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…
