Wakefield Generation in a Plasma Filled Rectangular Waveguide
We study the wakefield in a plasma filled rectangular waveguide based on a differential equation derived in terms of the wake potential , when the pulse duration matches with inverse of the plasma frequency fp 1 . This equation is solved using fourth-order Runge-Kutta method for the Gaussian-like profile of the microwave pulse. The effects of microwave frequency f , waveguide width b and microw...
متن کاملExcitation of wakefields by relativistic electron bunches in the dielectric waveguide filled with radially inhomogeneous plasma
One of shortcomings of the dielectric wakefield accelerators (DWA) limiting the effective length of an acceleration is susceptibility of drive bunches to beam breakup (BBU) instability [1]. With the purpose to suppress this instability recently it has been proposed to fill the drift channel of dielectric structure with plasma of certain density [2]. The investigations of plasma DWA (PDWA) [2] w...
متن کاملGeV-scale electron acceleration in a gas-filled capillary discharge waveguide
We report experimental results on laser-driven electron acceleration with low divergence. The electron beam was generated by focussing 750 mJ, 42 fs laser pulses into a gas-filled capillary discharge waveguide at electron densities in the range between 1018 and 1019cm−3. Quasi-monoenergetic electron bunches with energies as high as 500 MeV have been detected, with features reaching up to 1 GeV,...
متن کاملNonlinear tearing mode in inhomogeneous plasma: I. Unmagnetized islands
A theory of the nonlinear growth and propagation of magnetic islands in the semi-collisional regime is presented. The theory includes the effects of finite electron temperature gradients and uses a fluid model with cold ions in slab geometry to describe islands that are unmagnetized in the sense that their width is less than ρs, the ion Larmor radius calculated with the electron temperature. Th...
متن کاملElectron acceleration in a helical waveguide
Travelling wave in a helical wave guide is considered for electron acceleration. A first determination of the travelling wave modes using a partial wave expansion (PWE) and a point matching method is presented. It gives a rapid solution for moderate deformation of the guide relative to a straight cylinder. Strong deformations will give higher accelerating gradient but the PWE diverges. Two meth...
