The Electron Cloud is an undesirable physical phenomenon which might produce single and multi-bunch instability, tune shift, increase of pressure ultimately limiting the performance of particle accelerators. We report our results on the analytical study of the electron dynamics.

The evolution of the electron density during electron cloud formation can be reproduced using a bunch-to-bunch iterative map formalism. The reliability of this formalism has been proved for RHIC [1] and LHC [2]. The linear coefficient has a good theoretical framework, while quadratic coefficient has been proved only by fitting the results of compute-intensive electron cloud simulations. In this communication we derive an analytic expression for the quadratic map coefficient. The comparison of the theoretical estimate with the simulations results shows a good agreement for a wide range of bunch population.
Electron cloud effects have recognized as as one of the most serious bottleneck for reaching design performances in presently running and proposed future storage rings. The analysis of these effects is usually performed with very time consuming simulation codes. An alternative analytic approach, based on a cubic map model for the bunch-to-bunch evolution of the electron cloud density, could be useful to determine regions in parameters space compatible with safe machine operations. In this communication we derive a simple approximate formula relating the linear coefficient in the electron cloud density map to the parameters relevant for the electron cloud evolution with particular reference to the LHC dipoles.
We suggest a novel method for injection of electrons into the acceleration phase of particle accelerators, producing low emittance beams appropriate even for the demanding high energy Linear Collider specifications. In this paper we work out the injection into the acceleration phase of the wake field in a plasma behind a high intensity laser pulse, taking advantage of the laser polarization and focusing. With the aid of catastrophe theory we categorize the injection dynamics. The scheme uses the structurally stable regime of transverse wake wave breaking, when electron trajectory self-intersection leads to the formation of a flat electron bunch. As shown in three-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations of the interaction of a laser pulse in a line-focus with an underdense plasma, the electrons, injected via the transverse wake wave breaking and accelerated by the wake wave, perform betatron oscillations with different amplitudes and frequencies along the two transverse coordinates. The polarization and focusing geometry lead to a way to produce relativistic electron bunches with asymmetric emittance (flat beam). An approach for generating flat laser accelerated ion beams is briefly discussed.
Total charge and energy evaluations for the electron beams generated in the laser wakefield acceleration (LWFA) is the primary step in the determination of the required target and laser parameters. Particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations is an efficient numerical tool that can provide such evaluations unless the effect of numerical dispersion is not diminished. The numerical dispersion, which is specific for the PIC modeling, affects not only the dephasing lengths in LWFA but also the total amount of the self-injected electrons. A numerical error of the order of $10^{-4}-10^{-3}$ in the calculation of the speed of light results in a significant error in the total injected charge and energy gain of the accelerated electron bunches. In the standard numerical approach, the numerical correction of the speed of light either requires infinitely small spatial grid resolution (which needs large computation platform) or force to compromise with the numerical accuracy. A simple and easy to implement numerical scheme is shown to suppress the numerical dispersion of the electromagnetic pulse in PIC simulations even with a modest spatial resolution, and without any special treatments to the core structure of the numerical algorithm. Evaluated charges of the self-injected electron bunches become essentially lower owing to the better calculations of the wake phase velocity.
Recently a new injection scheme for Laser Wake Field Acceleration, employing a single 100-TW-class laser system, has been proposed. In the Resonant Multi-Pulse Ionization injection (ReMPI) a resonant train of pulses drives a large amplitude plasma wave that traps electrons extracted from the plasma by further ionization of a high-Z dopant (Argon in the present paper). While the pulses of the driver train have intensity below the threshold for the dopants ionization, the properly delayed and frequency doubled (or more) ionization pulse possesses an electric field large enough to extract electrons, though its normalized amplitude is well below unity. In this paper we will report on numerical simulations results aimed at the generation of GeV-scale bunches with normalized emittance and {it rms} energy below $80, nm times rad $ and $0.5, %$, respectively. Analytical consideration of the FEL performance for a $1.3, GeV$ bunch will be also reported.
