Description
The question of what beam quality and efficiency are ultimately achievable in plasma-based accelerators is addressed analytically and through self-consistent particle-in-cell simulations. A strategy for phasing and beam loading to minimize energy spread while at the same time achieving high energy extraction efficiency is proposed. Preservation of beam emittance is facilitated by the use of a hollow channel. copyright 1998 The American Physical Society
