Radiation safety challenges in plasma accelerators
S. Bohlen, M. Kirchen, T. Liang +9
Plasma accelerators are rapidly evolving toward user-relevant machines with increasing repetition rates, particle energies and average beam powers. Despite their compact size, the…
Coherent High-Harmonic Generation with Laser-Plasma Beams
S. A. Antipov, I. Agapov, R. Brinkmann +4
Active energy compression scheme is presently being investigated for future laser-plasma accelerators. This method enables generating laser-plasma accelerator electron beams with a…
Bayesian optimization of laser-plasma accelerators assisted by reduced physical models
A. Ferran Pousa, S. Jalas, M. Kirchen +7
Particle-in-cell simulations are among the most essential tools for the modeling and optimization of laser-plasma accelerators, since they reproduce the physics from first principl…
Stable and high quality electron beams from staged laser and plasma wakefield accelerators
F. M. Foerster, A. Döpp, F. Haberstroh +24
We present experimental results on a plasma wakefield accelerator (PWFA) driven by high-current electron beams from a laser wakefield accelerator (LWFA). In this staged setup stabl…
Energy Compression and Stabilization of Laser-Plasma Accelerators
A. Ferran Pousa, I. Agapov, S. A. Antipov +9
Laser-plasma accelerators outperform current radiofrequency technology in acceleration strength by orders of magnitude. Yet, enabling them to deliver competitive beam quality for d…
Demonstration of a compact plasma accelerator powered by laser-accelerated electron beams
T. Kurz, T. Heinemann, M. F. Gilljohann +22
Plasma wakefield accelerators are capable of sustaining gigavolt-per-centimeter accelerating fields, surpassing the electric breakdown threshold in state-of-the-art accelerator mod…
Chirp mitigation of plasma-accelerated beams using a modulated plasma density
R. Brinkmann, N. Delbos, I. Dornmair +13
Plasma-based accelerators offer the possibility to drive future compact light sources and high-energy physics applications. Achieving good beam quality, especially a small beam ene…
The FLASHForward Facility at DESY
A. Aschikhin, C. Behrens, S. Bohlen +35
The FLASHForward project at DESY is a pioneering plasma-wakefield acceleration experiment that aims to produce, in a few centimetres of ionised hydrogen, beams with energy of order…
Wakefield-Induced Ionization injection in beam-driven plasma accelerators
A. Martinez de la Ossa, T. J. Mehrling, L. Schaper +2
We present a detailed analysis of the features and capabilities of Wakefield-Induced Ionization (WII) injection in the blowout regime of beam driven plasma accelerators. This mecha…
High-Quality Electron Beams from Beam-Driven Plasma Accelerators by Wakefield-Induced Ionization Injection
A. Martinez de la Ossa, J. Grebenyuk, T. Mehrling +2
We propose a new and simple strategy for controlled ionization-induced trapping of electrons in a beam-driven plasma accelerator. The presented method directly exploits electric wa…
