Effect of Transverse Beam Size on the Wakefields and Driver Beam Dynamics in Electron Beam Driven Plasma Wakefield Acceleration

Ratan Kumar Bera, Devshree Mandal, Amita Das +1

In this paper, wakefields driven by a relativistic electron beam in a cold homogeneous plasma is studied using 2-D fluid simulation techniques. It has been shown that in the limit…
