Hosing of a Long Relativistic Particle Bunch in Plasma

Patrick Blanchard, Ambrogio Fasoli, Ivo Furno, Yanis Andrebe, Alban Sublet, Sun Hee Kim, Riccardo Agnello, Christine Stollberg, Shuai Liu

Experimental results show that hosing of a long particle bunch in plasma can be induced by wakefields driven by a short, misaligned preceding bunch. Hosing develops in the plane of misalignment, selfmodulation in the perpendicular plane, at frequencies clo ...

Development of the self-modulation instability of a relativistic proton bunch in plasma

Patrick Blanchard, Ambrogio Fasoli, Ivo Furno, Samuel Rey-Mermet, Yanis Andrebe, Alban Sublet, Sun Hee Kim, Ana Francisca Leal Silva Soares, Riccardo Agnello, Christine Stollberg, Shuai Liu

Self-modulation is a beam-plasma instability that is useful to drive large-amplitude wakefields with bunches much longer than the plasma skin depth. We present experimental results showing that, when increasing the ratio between the initial transverse size ...

Experimental Observation of Plasma Wakefield Growth Driven by the Seeded Self-Modulation of a Proton Bunch

Sun Hee Kim, Gennady Plyushchev, Ishkhan Gorgisyan, Sijie Liu, Michele Marin, Yiming Li, Shuai Liu

We measure the effects of transverse wakefields driven by a relativistic proton bunch in plasma with densities of 2.1 x 10(14) and 7.7 x 10(14) electrons/cm(3). We show that these wakefields periodically defocus the proton bunch itself, consistently with t ...
