Hosing of a Long Relativistic Particle Bunch in Plasma

Ambrogio Fasoli, Ivo Furno, Patrick Blanchard, Yanis Andrebe, Riccardo Agnello, Christine Stollberg, Sun Hee Kim, Alban Sublet, Shuai Liu

Experimental results show that hosing of a long particle bunch in plasma can be induced by wakefields driven by a short, misaligned preceding bunch. Hosing develops in the plane of misalignment, selfmodulation in the perpendicular plane, at frequencies clo ...

Energy-Efficient Particle Accelerators for Research

Mike Seidel

Particle accelerators are the drivers for large-scale research infrastructures for particle physics but also for many branches of condensed matter research. The types of accelerator-driven research infrastructures include particle colliders, neutron, muon ...

Bridging Monte Carlo worlds: a new framework for accelerator simulations applied on shielding and machine protection studies

André Donadon Servelle

This thesis delves into the critical study of particle transport in matter, particularly emphasising its implications for machine protection at CERN's accelerator complex and facilities. To conduct studies of this nature, FLUKA and Geant4 stand out within ...

Optimizing Dynamic Aperture Studies with Active Learning

Tatiana Pieloni, Ekaterina Krymova, Mike Seidel, Davide Di Croce, Massimo Giovannozzi

Dynamic aperture is an important concept for the study of non-linear beam dynamics in circular accelerators. It describes the extent of the phase-space region where a particle's motion remains bounded over a given number of turns. Understanding the feature ...

Full-F turbulent simulation in a linear plasma device using a gyro-moment approach

Paolo Ricci, Baptiste Jimmy Frei

Simulations of plasma turbulence in a linear plasma device configuration are presented. These simulations are based on a simplified version of the gyrokinetic (GK) model proposed by Frei et al. [J. Plasma Phys. 86, 905860205 (2020)], where the full-F distr ...

Development of the self-modulation instability of a relativistic proton bunch in plasma

Ambrogio Fasoli, Ivo Furno, Patrick Blanchard, Yanis Andrebe, Riccardo Agnello, Christine Stollberg, Sun Hee Kim, Ana Francisca Leal Silva Soares, Alban Sublet, Samuel Rey-Mermet

Self-modulation is a beam-plasma instability that is useful to drive large-amplitude wakefields with bunches much longer than the plasma skin depth. We present experimental results showing that, when increasing the ratio between the initial transverse size ...

Charge Dynamics Electron Microscopy Nanoscale Imaging of Femtosecond Plasma Dynamics

Fabrizio Carbone, Ivan Madan, Thomas La Grange, Giovanni Maria Vanacore, Gabriele Berruto, Ido Kaminer, Simone Gargiulo, Luca Piazza, Francesco Barantani, Tom Theodorus Antonius Lummen

Understanding and actively controlling the spatiotemporal dynamics of nonequilibrium electron clouds is fundamental for the design of light and electron sources, high power electronic devices, and plasma-based applications. However, electron clouds evolve ...

A model of non-Maxwellian electron distribution function for the analysis of ECE data in JET discharges

Mikhail Maslov, Javier García Hernández, Samuele Mazzi

Recent experiments performed in JET at high level of plasma heating, in preparation of, and during the DT campaign have shown significant discrepancies between electron temperature measurements by Thomson Scattering (TS) and Electron Cyclotron Emission (EC ...

Quantum engineering and detection of advanced radiation beams

Veronica Leccese

Controlling and shaping radiation beams is fundamental for a better understanding of radiation-matter interaction and advancing experimental techniques for material characterization at high spatial resolution. In particular, the current trend in the miniat ...

Characterization of transversely confined electron beam-generated plasma using two-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations

Haomin Sun, Guang-Yu Sun

Electron beam-generated plasmas (EBPs) have been used to modify the surface properties. In certain applications, EBPs are transversely confined and their properties are of value to the treatment. In this paper, the characteristics of an electron beam-gener ...
