Description
LWFA
- What are the limits for the energy gain?
- Overcoming/extending dephasing and depletion limits
- Review injection techniques: How can we generate the most extreme beams in terms of charge, emittance, energy spread, etc?
- External.
- Wavebreaking.
- DDR.
- Ionization-induced.
- New ideas:
- Resonant addition of laser drivers.
- Plasma wakefield excitation by incoherent laser pulses.
PWFA
- What are the limits for the energy gain?
- Driver depletion, head-erosion
- Review injection techniques: Which one can generate the most extreme beams in terms of charge, emittance, energy spread, etc?
- External.
- Wavebreaking?.
- DDR.
- Ionization-induced:
- Self-induced: Beam and Wakefield triggered.
- Assisted: Trojan Horse.
- New ideas:
- Resonant excitation with muilt-peaked high current electron drivers.
- Witness-to-driver staging.
- Hybrid LWFA + PWFA.
