Interaction of ultrarelativistic electron and proton bunches with dense plasmas

Plasma Physics 2015-06-03 v2

Abstract

Here we discuss the possibility of employment of ultrarelativistic electron and proton bunches for generation of high plasma wakefields in dense plasmas due to the Cherenkov resonance plasma-bunch interaction. We estimate the maximum amplitude of such a wake and minimum system length at which the maximum amplitude can be generated at the given bunch parameters.
