Experiment to Detect Accelerating Modes in a Photonic Bandgap Fiber

  • 1. Stanford Linear Accelerator Center, Menlo Park, CA (United States)
  • 2. Max Planck Inst. Quantenopt., Garching (Germany)

Description

An experimental effort is currently underway at the E-163 test beamline at Stanford Linear Accelerator Center to use a hollow-core photonic bandgap (PBG) fiber as a high-gradient laser-based accelerating structure for electron bunches. For the initial stage of this experiment, a 50pC, 60 MeV electron beam will be coupled into the fiber core and the excited modes will be detected using a spectrograph to resolve their frequency signatures in the wakefield radiation generated by the beam. They will describe the experimental plan and recent simulation studies of candidate fibers.
