Hosing of a long relativistic particle bunch in plasma

T. Nechaeva, L. Verra, J. Pucek +4

Experimental results show that hosing of a long particle bunch in plasma can be induced by wakefields driven by a short, misaligned preceding bunch. Hosing develops in the plane of…

Development of the Self-Modulation Instability of a Relativistic Proton Bunch in Plasma

L. Verra, S. Wyler, T. Nechaeva +7

Self-modulation is a beam-plasma instability that is useful to drive large-amplitude wakefields with bunches much longer than the plasma skin depth. We present experimental results…

Generation of 10-m-lengthscale plasma columns by resonant and off-resonant laser pulses

G. Demeter, J. T. Moody, M. A. Kedves +7

Creating extended, highly homogeneous plasma columns like that required by plasma wakefield accelerators can be a challenge. We study the propagation of ultra-short, TW power ioniz…

Mapping charge capture and acceleration in a plasma wakefield of a proton bunch using variable emittance electron beam injection

E. Granados, L. Verra, A. -M. Bachmann +10

In the Phase 2 of the AWAKE first experimental run (from May to November 2018), an electron beam was used to probe and test proton-driven wakefield acceleration in a rubidium plasm…

The AWAKE Run 2 programme and beyond

Edda Gschwendtner, Konstantin Lotov, Patric Muggli +99

Plasma wakefield acceleration is a promising technology to reduce the size of particle accelerators. Use of high energy protons to drive wakefields in plasma has been demonstrated…

The influence of phonon harmonicity on spectrally pure resonant Stokes fields

Georgios Stoikos, Eduardo Granados

Thanks to their highly coherent emission and compact form factor, single axial mode diamond Raman lasers have been identified as a valuable asset for applications including integra…
