Relativistic charged-particle beams which generate intense longitudinal fields in accelerating structures also inherently couple to transverse modes. The effects of this coupling may lead to beam break-up instability, and thus must be…
High efficiency is essential for plasma-wakefield accelerators to be a cost-effective alternative in high-power applications, such as a linear collider. However, in a plasma-wakefield accelerator the beam-breakup instability can be seeded…
As charged particle bunches become shorter and more intense, the effects of nonlinear intra-bunch collective interactions such as space charge forces and bunch-to-bunch influences such as wakefields and coherent synchrotron radiation also…
When a beam propagates in an accelerator, it interacts with both the external fields and the self-generated electromagnetic fields. If the latter are strong enough, the interplay between them and a perturbation in the beam distribution…
Plasma wake-field acceleration is one of the main technologies being developed for future high-energy colliders. Potentially, it can create a cost-effective path to the highest possible energies for e+e- or {\gamma}-{\gamma} colliders and…
When a charged particle travels across the vacuum chamber of an accelerator, it induces electromagnetic fields, which are left mainly behind the generating particle. These electromagnetic fields act back on the beam and influence its…
A beam of ultrarelativistic charged particles in a plasma can reach equilibrium with its own radial wakefield and then propagate with little change in shape. If some co-moving perturbation appears ahead of the beam, it may or may not…
High-brightness electron bunches, such as those generated and accelerated in free-electron lasers (FELs), can develop small-scale structure in the longitudinal phase space. This causes variations in the slice energy spread and current…
Coupled-bunch instabilities excited by the interaction of the particle beam with its surroundings can seriously limit the performance of circular particle accelerators. These instabilities can be cured by the use of active feedback systems…
Coherent transverse oscillations of a bunch in a ring accelerator are considered. Three different models of the bunch are used: a hollow bunch in a square potential well, a square bunch in a parabolic potential well, and a parabolic bunch…
Nonlinear dynamics of the one-dimensional ultrarelativistic bunch of electrons,moving in cold plasma,is considered in multiple scales perturbative approach. A square root of the inverse Lorentz factor of the bunch electrons is taken as a…
In this work we analyze the longitudinal instabilities of propagating acceleration structures that are driven by a relativistically intense laser at the moving plasma critical layer [1]. These instabilities affect the energy-spectra of the…
A scheme of laser wakefield acceleration, when a relatively rare and long bunch of non-relativistic or weakly-relativistic electrons is initially in front of the laser pulse, is suggested and considered. The motion of test electrons is…
We recently developed an analytic theory of cumulative multibunch beam breakup that includes a linear variation of transverse focusing across the bunch train. The focusing variation saturates the exponential growth of the beam breakup and…
Effects of plasma inhomogeneity on self-modulating proton bunches and accelerated electrons were studied numerically. The main effect is the change of the wakefield wavelength which results in phase shifts and loss of accelerated particles.…
We analyze the transverse stability for a configuration of multiple gaussian bunches subject to the self-generated plasma wakefield. Through a semi-analytical approach we first study the equilibrium configuration for the modulated beam and…
The micro-bunching instability is a longitudinal instability that leads to dynamical deformations of the charge distribution in the longitudinal phase space. It affects the longitudinal charge distribution, and thus the emitted coherent…
A multi-stream instability is observed experimentally in a longitudinally expanding electron beam in a storage ring. The instability is observed when the beam expands such that its length is several times the circumference of the ring, and…
An electron or electron-positron beam streaming through a plasma is notoriously prone to micro-instabilities. For a dilute ultrarelativistic infinite beam, the dominant instability is a mixed mode between longitudinal two-stream and…
Non-linear effects in accelerator physics are important for both successful operation of accelerators and during the design stage. Since both of these aspects are closely related, they will be treated together in this overview. Some of the…
