Plasma Channels and Accelerator Applications — A Tutorial
A plasma channel is a narrow preionized column of plasma that can be used for a number of accelerator applications. Plasma channels play a crucial role in the laser wakefield accelerator (LWFA), where...

Structure Loaded Vacuum Laser-Driven Particle Acceleration Experiments at SLAC
We present an overview of the future laser-driven particle acceleration experiments. These will be carried out at the E163 facility at SLAC. Our objectives include a reconfirmation of the proof-of-pri...

TheUniversity of Maryland electron ring (UMER) is a low-energy, highcurrent recirculator for beam physics research with relevance to anyapplications that rely on intense beams of high quality. Wereview the space-charge physics issues, both in transverse and longitudinalbeam dynamics, which are currently being addressed with UMER: emittancegrowth and halo formation, strongly asymmetric beams, Montague resonances, equipartitioning,bunch capture and shaping, etc. Furthermore, we report on recentdevelopments in experiments, simulations, and improved diagnostics for space-charge dominatedbeams. ©2006 American Institute of Physics
