Focusing of a Long Relativistic Proton Bunch in Underdense Plasma
Livio Verra, Edda Gschwendtner, Patric Muggli
We discuss the focusing effect experienced by a long relativistic proton bunch, when propagating in underdense plasma. We show with 2D quasi-static simulations that the response of…
Self-modulation instability of ultra-relativistic particle bunches with finite rise times
J. Vieira, L. D. Amorim, Y. Fang +3
We study the evolution of the self-modulation instability using bunches with finite rise times. Using particle-in-cell simulations we show that unlike long bunches with sharp rise…
Self-injection by trapping of plasma electrons oscillating in rising density gradient at the vacuum-plasma interface
Aakash A. Sahai, Thomas C. Katsouleas, Patric Muggli
We model the trapping of plasma within the density structures excited by a propagating energy source () in a rising plasma density gradient. Rising density grad…
Hosing Instability Suppression in Self-Modulated Plasma Wakefields
J. Vieira, W. B. Mori, P. Muggli
We show that the hosing instability can be suppressed after the saturation of the self-modulation instability of a long particle bunch if the plasma density perturbation is linear.…
