چکیده
The hollow plasma channel is analyzed as an accelerating structure. The excitation of the channel by an ultra-relativistic beam is analyzed. Coupling to the fundamental and all higher order azimuthal modes of the excited electromagnetic elds is derived. Implications of this work for plasma-based accelerators, including beam loading and beam breakup, are discussed. Small initial transverse displacements of the beam are shown to couple to de ecting modes in the channel. The asymptotic growth rate of the resultant beam breakup instability is analyzed and a method for reducing the growth is

Particle Beam Stability in the Hollow Plasma Channel Wake Field Accelerator
The electromagnetic wake field response of a hollow plasma channel to a driver (laser or charged particle beam) of arbitrary velocity is derived. The dispersion and loss factors of excited fundamental and higher order azimuthal modes are computed. Growth rates for beam breakup instabilities are calculated and beam transport is studied. External focusing is shown to provide a method of controlli...

متن کاملTransverse Beam Dynamics in Plasma-based Linacs
The transverse beam dynamics in plasma channels of possible future plasma-based linacs is discussed. We represent the transverse focusing of both a beam-driven and a laser-driven plasma wake eld accelerator by a uniform focusing channel. The transverse beam sizes and a basic o set tolerance are calculated, nding that sub-micron beams must be transported with even smaller o set tolerances. The r...
متن کاملParticle Dynamics and its Consequences in Wake eld Acceleration in a High Energy Collider
The performance of a wake eld accelerator in a high energy collider application is analyzed by use of a nonlinear dynamics map built on a simple theoretical model of the wake eld generated by the laser pulse (or whatever other method) and a code based on this map [1].The crucial gures of merit for such a system other than the nal energy include the emittance (that determines the luminosity). Th...
متن کاملProposal for a One GeV Plasma Wake eld Acceleration Experiment at SLAC
A plasma-based wake eld acceleration experiment E-157 has been approved at SLAC to study acceleration of parts of an SLC bunch by up to 1 GeV/m over a length of 1 m. A single SLC bunch is used to both induce wake elds in the one meter long plasma and to witness the resulting beam acceleration. The experiment will explore and further develop the techniques that are needed to apply high-gradient ...
