چکیده
Abstract The paper presents the results of numerical particle-in-cell simulation positron bunch focusing during acceleration in a plasma dielectric wakefield accelerator. is excited by drive electron quartz tube, embedded cylindrical metal waveguide. internal area tube filled with having general case paraxial vacuum channel. Two different models density radius-relationship are investigated: homogeneous model and inhomogeneous dependence characterized capillary discharge. Results show that simultaneous test possible. transport change size channel, waveguide length density-radius studied.

Positron Production in a Plasma Wakefield Accelerator
In a visit on Oct. 28, 1996 to the Center for Ultrafast Optical Studies at U. Michigan I had interesting conversations with Gerard Mourou and Don Umstadter about possible mechanisms for positron production in a plasma that is illuminated with a strong laser. I argue that positron production via a trident process (which includes Bethe-Heitler pair production) involving an isolated nucleus is pos...
متن کاملPlasma-wakefield acceleration of a positron beam.
Plasma-wakefield excitation by positron beams is examined in a regime for which the plasma dynamics are highly nonlinear. Three dimensional particle-in-cell simulations and physical models are presented. In the nonlinear wake regime known as the blowout regime for electrons, positron wakes exhibit an analogous "suck-in" behavior. Although analogous, the two wakefield cases are quite different i...
متن کاملNovel Module for Plasma Wakefield Acceleration of a Positron Beam
A novel approach for studying positron acceleration physics without an external positron source is developed. This scheme uses an e beam to both create positrons in a target before the plasma and to excite the wake that accelerates these positrons. 2-D PIC simulations show that ultra-short e bunches can be focused and accelerated.
متن کاملDemonstration of a positron beam-driven hollow channel plasma wakefield accelerator
Plasma wakefield accelerators have been used to accelerate electron and positron particle beams with gradients that are orders of magnitude larger than those achieved in conventional accelerators. In addition to being accelerated by the plasma wakefield, the beam particles also experience strong transverse forces that may disrupt the beam quality. Hollow plasma channels have been proposed as a ...
متن کاملBunch self-focusing regime of laser wakefield acceleration with reduced emittance growth.
A new regime of laser wakefield acceleration of an injected electron bunch is described. In this regime, the bunch charge is so high that the bunch wakefields play an important role in the bunch dynamics. In particular, the transverse bunch wakefield induces a strong self-focusing that suppresses the transverse emittance growth arising from misalignment errors. The decelerating longitudinal bun...
