Filamentation of a Relativistic Proton Bunch in Plasma
L. Verra, C. Amoedo, N. Torrado +12
We show in experiments that a long, underdense, relativistic proton bunch propagating in plasma undergoes the oblique instability, that we observe as filamentation. We determine a…
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…
Techniques to seed the self-modulation instability of a long proton bunch in plasma
L. Verra, G. Zevi Della Porta, E. Gschwendtner +2
The Advanced Wakefield Experiment (AWAKE) at CERN relies on the seeded Self-Modulation (SM) of a long relativistic proton bunch in plasma to accelerate an externally injected MeV w…
Generation of 10-m-lengthscale plasma columns by resonant and off-resonant laser pulses
G. Demeter, J. T. Moody, M. A. Kedves +7
Creating extended, highly homogeneous plasma columns like that required by plasma wakefield accelerators can be a challenge. We study the propagation of ultra-short, TW power ioniz…
Report of Snowmass 21 Accelerator Frontier Topical Group 6 on Advanced Accelerators
C. Geddes, M. Hogan, P. Musumeci +1
The Snowmass 2021 Accelerator Frontier topical group \# 6 on Advanced Accelerator Concepts, covers new R\&D concepts for particle acceleration, generation, and focusing. Based on c…
Adiabatic Focusing of a Long Proton Bunch in Plasma
L. Verra, E. Gschwendtner, P. Muggli
We show in experiments that a long, relativistic proton bunch is focused by the plasma adiabatic response. The free plasma electrons migrate so as to neutralize the space charge fi…
Ion Coulomb Crystals in Storage Rings for Quantum Information Science
S. Brooks, K. Brown, F. Méot +29
Quantum information science is a growing field that promises to take computing into a new age of higher performance and larger scale computing as well as being capable of solving p…
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 proton bunch self-modulation by an electron bunch in plasma
L. Verra, G. Zevi Della Porta, K. -J. Moon +3
The AWAKE experiment relies on the self-modulation instability of a long proton bunch to effectively drive wakefields and accelerate an electron bunch to GeV-level energies. During…
Schlieren Imaging for the Determination of the Radius of an Excited Rubidium Column
A. -M. Bachmann, M. Martyanov, J. Moody +2
AWAKE develops a new plasma wakefield accelerator using the CERN SPS proton bunch as a driver. The proton bunch propagates through a 10 m long rubidium plasma, induced by an ionizi…
