Slice Emittance Preservation and Focus Control in a Passive Plasma Lens
J. Björklund Svensson, J. BeinortaitÄ, L. Boulton +15
Strong, symmetrically focusing plasma lenses are promising for accommodating the small beams associated with plasma-based accelerators and collider final foci. However, while focus…
A Linear Collider Vision for the Future of Particle Physics
H. Abramowicz, E. Adli, F. Alharthi +446
In this paper we review the physics opportunities at linear colliders with a special focus on high centre-of-mass energies and beam polarisation, take a fresh look at the…
Characterization of discharge capillaries via benchmarked hydrodynamic plasma simulations
S. M. Mewes, G. J. Boyle, R. D'Arcy +10
Plasma accelerators utilize strong electric fields in plasma waves to accelerate charged particles, making them a compact alternative to radiofrequency technologies. Discharge capi…
The Linear Collider Facility (LCF) at CERN
H. Abramowicz, E. Adli, F. Alharthi +406
In this paper we outline a proposal for a Linear Collider Facility as the next flagship project for CERN. It offers the opportunity for a timely, cost-effective and staged construc…
Ion-motion simulations of a plasma-wakefield experiment at FLASHForward
D. Kalvik, P. Drobniak, F. Peña +13
In plasma-based acceleration, an ultra-relativistic particle bunch$\unicode{x2014}$or an intense laser beam$\unicode{x2014}$is used to expel electrons from its propagation path, fo…
Contribution of ALEGRO to the Update of the European Strategy on Particle Physics
B. Cros, P. Muggli, L. Corner +18
Advanced and novel accelerators (ANAs), driven a by laser pulse or a relativistic particle bunch, have made remarkable progress over the last decades. They accelerated electrons by…
