OUTLINEIntroduction of Self-Modulation Instability (SMI)
Investigation of the beam charge through simulation to study energy modulation with the available electron bunch at ATF
Experimental observation of periodic energy modulation in various plasma densities
Seeding of SMI through energy modulation
Study of instability seeding effect involved in the experiment
Proton Bunches produced at LHC will have up to 7TeV/particle, 100 kJ/bunch, much higher than the current lepton bunches (60J/bunch, 100GeV/particle) can be used as the drive bunch in PWFA ?A.Caldwell proposed the idea of of proton-driven PWFA and demonstrated the possibility of producing a TeV electron bunch in a single acceleration stage using a short (~100um) proton bunch driver. (A. Caldwell et al., Nature Physics 5, 363 (2009); B. E. Blues thesis (2003))However, such short proton bunches are not available (~12cm). Kumar et al. suggested that self-modulation could radially modulate a long bunch into small beamlets on the scale of pe, resulting in the resonant excitation of large amplitude accelerating wakefields.SMI is interesting beam-plasma interaction physics Take advantage of electron bunches and experimental infrastructure available at SLAC and BNL-ATF to study the physics of SMI.
