Excitation of strongly nonlinear plasma wakefield by electron bunches


الملخص بالإنكليزية

We propose a new method for analytical self-consistent description of the excitation of a strongly nonlinear wakefield (a bubble) excited by an electron bunch. This method makes it possible to calculate the shape of the bubble and the distribution of the electric field in it based only on the properties of the driver, without relying on any additional parameters. The analytical results are verified by particle-in-cell simulations and show good correspondence. A complete analytical solution for cylindrical drivers and scaling laws for the properties of the bubble and other plasma accelerator parameters depending on the bunch charge and length are derived.
