Development of self-modulation as a function of plasma length
Arthur Clairembaud, Marlene Turner, Patric Muggli
We use numerical simulations to determine whether the saturation length of the self-modulation (SM) instability of a long proton bunch in plasma could be determined by measuring th…

Implementation of Light Diagnostics for Wakefields at AWAKE
Jan Mezger, Michele Bergamaschi, Lucas Ranc +5
We describe the implementation of light diagnostics for studying the self-modulation instability of a long relativistic proton bunch in a 10m-long plasma. The wakefields driven by…

Understanding time-resolved images of AWAKE proton bunches
M. Turner, P. Muggli
This article details how images of proton microbunch trains obtained from streak camera measurements may differ from actual microbunch trains inside the plasma, at the plasma exit.…
