Limitation on the accelerating gradient of a wakefield excited by an ultrarelativistic electron beam in rubidium plasma
We have investigated the viability of using plasmas formed by ionization of high Z, low ionization potential element rubidium (Rb) for beam-driven plasma wakefield acceleration. The Rb vapor column confined by argon (Ar) buffer gas was used to reduce the expected limitation on the beam propagation l...
