Progress on Plasma Accelerators
نویسنده
چکیده
Several plasma accelerator concepts are reviewed, with emphasis on the Plasma Beat Wave Accelerator (PBWA) and the Plasma Wake Field Accelerator (PWFA). Various accelerator physics issues regarding these schemes are discussed, and numerical examples on laboratory scale experiments are given. The efficiency of plasma accelerators is then revealed with suggestions on improvements. Sources that cause emittance growth are discussed briefly.

متن کاملEffect of Gas Ratio on Tribological and Corrosion Properties of Ion Beam Sputter Deposited TiN Coatings
Titanium nitride thin films were grown on 304 stainless steel substrates at various nitrogen/argon flow ratios by ion beam sputtering (IBS) technique. The current research is a follow up study on the influence of gas ratio on structural and corrosion properties in the TiN coated 304 stainless steel. Film structural identification of phases was performed using X-ray diffractometry (XRD). Sca...
متن کاملRecent Progress on Laser Driven Accelerators and Applications
Directed laser beams provide a very useful way of concentrating energy efficiently. Using them for acceleration of particles however is challenging. An electron in an intense laser beam will behave much like a cork on water as a huge wave passes by-bobbing up and down on the wave but not really going anywhere. In 1979, Tajima and Dawson [1] solved the problem of how to transfer the laser beam e...
