Direct Observation of Plasma Waves and Dynamics Induced by Laser-Accelerated Electron Beams

Plasma wakefield acceleration (PWFA) is a novel acceleration technique with promising prospects for both particle colliders and light sources. However, PWFA research has so far been limited to a few large-scale accelerator facilities worldwide. Here, we present first results on plasma wakefield gene...
