Influence of ion motion in a resonantly driven wakefield accelerator
Erwin Walter, John P. Farmer, Marlene Turner +1
Several different schemes for plasma wakefield acceleration using a train of drivers have been pursued, based on the resonant excitation of a plasma wave. Since these schemes rely…

Experimental Observation of Motion of Ions in a Resonantly Driven Plasma Wakefield Accelerator
M. Turner, E. Walter, C. Amoedo +15
We show experimentally that an effect of motion of ions, observed in a plasma-based accelerator, depends inversely on the plasma ion mass. The effect appears within a single wakefi…
