Demonstration Experiment Proton-Driven Plasma Wakefield Acceleration — •Steffen Hillenbrand1,2, Ralph Assmann2, Anke-Susanne Müller1, and Frank Zimmermann2 — 1KIT, Karlsruhe, Germany — 2CERN, Geneva, Switzerland
Plasma-based acceleration methods have seen important progress over the last years. Recently, it has been proposed to experimentally study plasma acceleration driven by proton beams, in addition to the established research directions of electron and laser-driven plasmas. This talk presents the planned experiment and the research efforts carried out.
