Evaluation of Temporal Diagnostic Techniques for Two-Bunch FACET Beam
Litos, Michael.
Three temporal diagnostic techniques are considered for use in the FACET facility at SLAC, which will incorporate a unique two-bunch beam for plasma wakefield acceleration experiments. The results of these experiments will depend strongly on the inter-bunch spacing as well as the longitudinal profiles of the two bunches. A reliable, single- shot, high resolution measurement of the beam's temporal profile is necessary to fully quantify the physical mechanisms underlying the beam driven plasma wak... Show Full Abstract
Three temporal diagnostic techniques are considered for use in the FACET facility at SLAC, which will incorporate a unique two-bunch beam for plasma wakefield acceleration experiments. The results of these experiments will depend strongly on the inter-bunch spacing as well as the longitudinal profiles of the two bunches. A reliable, single- shot, high resolution measurement of the beam's temporal profile is necessary to fully quantify the physical mechanisms underlying the beam driven plasma wakefield acceleration. In this study we show that a transverse deflecting cavity is the diagnostic which best meets our criteria. Show Partial Abstract
