Experimental Demonstration of Beam-Driven Wakefield Acceleration in Laser-Plasma Filament
M. Galletti, L. Verra, A. Biagioni +10
Self-guided femtosecond laser pulses propagating in low-pressure gas can generate plasma filaments, establishing a new framework for plasma wakefield acceleration. Unlike conventio…
A numerical study on plasma acceleration processes with ion dynamics at the sub-nanosecond timescale
G. Parise, A. Cianchi, M. Galletti +5
Plasma wakefield acceleration is a groundbreaking technique for accelerating particles, capable of sustaining gigavolt-per-meter accelerating fields. Understanding the physical mec…
Study of the transfer and matching line for a PWFA-driven FEL
P Iovine, A Bacci, A Biagioni +9
The development of compact accelerator facilities providing high-brightness beams is one of the most challenging tasks in the field of next-generation compact and cost affordable p…
Recovery of hydrogen plasma at the sub-nanosecond timescale in a plasma-wakefield accelerator
R. Pompili, M. P. Anania, A. Biagioni +21
Plasma wakefield acceleration revolutionized the field of particle accelerators by generating gigavolt-per-centimeter fields. To compete with conventional radio-frequency (RF) acce…
Effect of Dielectric Wakefields in a Capillary Discharge for Plasma Wakefield Acceleration
L. Verra, M. Galletti, R. Pompili +14
Dielectric capillaries are widely used to generate plasmas for plasma wakefield acceleration. When a relativistic drive bunch travels through a capillary with misaligned trajectory…
