Generation of topologically complex three-dimensional electron beams in a plasma photocathode
Xinlu Xu, Jorge Vieira, Mark Hogan +2
Laser-triggered ionization injection is a promising way of generating controllable high-quality electrons in plasma-based acceleration. We show that ionization injection of electro…
Analysis of Proton Bunch Parameters in the AWAKE Experiment
V. Hafych, A. Caldwell, R. Agnello +85
A precise characterization of the incoming proton bunch parameters is required to accurately simulate the self-modulation process in the Advanced Wakefield Experiment (AWAKE). This…
Stable Positron Acceleration in Thin, Warm, Hollow Plasma Channels
T. Silva, L. D. Amorim, M. C. Downer +4
Hollow plasma channels are attractive for lepton acceleration because they provide intrinsic emittance preservation regimes. However, beam breakup instabilities dominate the dynami…
Slowdown of interpenetration of two counterpropagating plasma slab due to collective effects
N. Shukla, K. Schoeffler, J. Vieira +3
The nonlinear evolution of electromagnetic instabilities driven by the interpenetration of two plasma clouds is explored using {\it ab initio} kinetic plasma simulations…
Nonlinear Thomson scattering with ponderomotive control
D. Ramsey, B. Malaca, A. Di Piazza +7
In nonlinear Thomson scattering, a relativistic electron reflects and re-radiates the photons of a laser pulse, converting optical light to x rays or beyond. While this extreme fre…
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…
