Generalized Theory of Blowout-Regime Plasma Wakefields via a Lagrangian Formulation
Y. Kang, P. Manwani, S. S. Baturin +3
The blowout regime of plasma wakefield acceleration is a strongly nonlinear plasma response in which an intense relativistic beam or laser pulse expels plasma electrons forming a n…
Multi-Objective Optimizations of High Gradient C-band Photoinjector for High Bunch Charge Applications
M. Kaemingk, P. M. Anisimov, J. M. Maxson +3
The high gradients potentially achievable in distributed-coupling C-band photoinjectors make them attractive for many high brightness applications. Here we discuss optimization res…
Analysis of the blowout plasma wakefields produced by drive beams with elliptical symmetry
P. Manwani, Y. Kang, J. Mann +3
In the underdense (blowout) regime of plasma wakefield acceleration (PWFA), the particle beam is denser than the plasma. Under these conditions, the plasma electrons are nearly com…
A rotor-based multileaf collimator for beam shaping
N. Majernik, G. Andonian, A. Parrack +4
We introduce a new style of multileaf collimator which employs rotors with angularly dependent radius to control the masking aperture: a rotor-based multileaf collimator (RMLC). Us…
