High flux femtosecond x-ray emission from the electron-hose instability in laser wakefield accelerators

Journal Article Dong, C. F. ; Zhao, T. Z. ; Behm, K. ; ... - Physical Review Accelerators and Beams

Here, bright and ultrashort duration x-ray pulses can be produced by through betatron oscillations of electrons during laser wakefield acceleration (LWFA). Our experimental measurements using the Hercules laser system demonstrate a dramatic increase in x-ray flux for interaction distances beyond the depletion/dephasing lengths, where the initial electron bunch injected into the first wake bucket catches up with the laser pulse front and the laser pulse depletes. A transition from an LWFA regime to a beam-driven plasma wakefield acceleration regime consequently occurs. The drive electron bunch is susceptible to the electron-hose instability and rapidly develops large amplitude oscillations in its tail,more »« less

Erratum: “Accurate modeling of the hose instability in plasma wakefield accelerators” [Phys. Plasmas 25, 056703 (2018)]

Journal Article Mehrling, T. J. ; Benedetti, C. ; Schroeder, C. B. ; ... - Physics of Plasmas

Here, we would like to correct a typographical error which was introduced in Eqs. (5), (11), (14), (20a), and (20b) during revision of Ref. 1. The series expansion of the plasmaelectron phase space density to the first order of ⟨x⟩ and ⟨px⟩ [Eq. (5) in Ref. 1] correctly reads f _p≈ f _p0 - cos θ (⟨x⟩∂r+ ⟨px⟩∂pr)f _p,0The zeroth-order term, f _p,0, was not printed in Ref. 1. Accordingly, the correct expansion of the wakefield potential [Eq. (11) in Ref. 1] is ψ(r,θ) ≈ ψ0(r) -cos θ X _p∂ _rψ ₀(r), the correct expansion of the source term ofmore »« less

Accurate modeling of the hose instability in plasma wakefield accelerators

Journal Article Mehrling, T. J. ; Benedetti, C. ; Schroeder, C. B. ; ... - Physics of Plasmas

Hosing is a major challenge for the applicability of plasma wakefield accelerators and its modeling is therefore of fundamental importance to facilitate future stable and compact plasma-based particle accelerators. In this contribution, we present a new model for the evolution of the plasma centroid, which enables the accurate investigation of the hose instability in the nonlinear blowout regime. Lastly, it paves the road for more precise and comprehensive studies of hosing, e.g., with drive and witness beams, which were not possible with previous models.
