Advances in the generation of relativistic intensity pulses with wavelengths in the X-ray regime, through high harmonic generation from near-critical plasmas, opens up the possibility of X-ray driven wakefield acceleration. The similarity…

Metre-scale plasma wakefield accelerators have imparted energy gain approaching 10 gigaelectronvolts to single nano-Coulomb electron bunches. To reach useful average currents, however, the enormous energy density that the driver deposits…

Wakefield acceleration methods are known due to some their advantages. The main of them is the high accelerating gradient up to several teravolts per meter. In the paper another important advantage is concluded to the possibility of using a…

The high peak current required in free-electron lasers (FELs) is realized by longitudinal compression of the electron bunches to sub-picosecond length. In this paper, a frequency-domain diagnostic method is described that is capable of…

Dipole wakefields in NLC (Next Linear Collider) structures have been measured with ASSET [1] and well predicted by a circuit model [2]. However, the experimental technique is both time-consuming and expensive. Here, we report on kick factor…

We propose a new and simple strategy for controlled ionization-induced trapping of electrons in a beam-driven plasma accelerator. The presented method directly exploits electric wakefields to ionize electrons from a dopant gas and capture…

The application of heat treatments on 1.3 GHz TESLA type cavities in ultra-high vacuum at 250{\deg}C to 350{\deg}C is called medium temperature or mid-T heat treatment. In various laboratories such treatments on superconducting radio…

Earlier RDDS (Rounded Damped Detuned Structures) [1,2], designed, fabricated and tested at SLAC, in collaboration with KEK, have been shown to damp wakefields successfully. However, electrical breakdown has been found to occur in these…

Recent experiments [1] have explored the use of a free-electron laser (FEL) as a buncher for a microwave two-beam accelerator, and the subsequent driving of a standing-wave rf output cavity. Here we present a deeper analysis of the…

Recent progress in laser wakefield acceleration has led to the emergence of a new generation of electron and X-ray sources that may have enormous benefits for ultrafast science. These novel sources promise to become indispensable tools for…

X-ray free electron lasers (XFELs) generate sequences of ultra-short, spatially coherent pulses of x-ray radiation. We propose the diffraction focusing spectrometer (DFS), which is able to measure the whole energy spectrum of the radiation…

Operating the SLAC/KEK DDS (Damped Detuned Structure) X-band linacs at high gradients (in excess of 70MV/m) has recently been found to be limited by the accelerator structures breaking down and as a consequence severe damage occurs to the…

The possibility of constructing terawatt (TW) x-ray free-electron lasers (FELs) has been discussed using novel superconducting helical undulators [5]. In this paper, we consider the conditions necessary for achieving powers in excess of 1…

It is shown via theory and simulation that the resonant frequency of a Free Electron Laser may be modulated to obtain an FEL interaction with a frequency bandwidth which is at least an order of magnitude greater than normal FEL operation.…

The bubble structure generated by laser and plasma interactions changes in size depending on the local plasma density. The self injection electrons position with respect to wakefield can be controlled by tailoring the longitudinal plasma…

The X-ray free-electron lasers (XFELs) are cutting-edge instruments pivotal in a broad range of fields, providing high-power X-ray pulses with durations spanning from femtoseconds to attoseconds. One of the critical challenges in XFEL…

The progress of a multiple bunches of electrons through several thousand accelerator structures results in a wakefield which if left unchecked will kick successive bunches off the axis of the accelerator and can at the very least dilute the…
