Nonlinear effects in plasma wake field acceleration (PWFA)

  • 1. Erevanskij Fizicheskij Inst., Erevan (USSR)

Description

The results of theoretical studies on nonlinear plasma wake field acceleration at the Yerevan Physics Institute (YerPhI) during the past years are given; the dependence of the wake field, the transformation ratio on the bunch Lorentz factor and the possibility of self-acceleration of relativistic bunch electrons are considered. The influence of ion motion and the finite lateral dimensions of the bunch is taken into account. In parallel with results obtained at YerPhI we discuss also the state-of-art and the future trends in the relevant directions of research. (author)
