Electron beam dynamics and self-cooling up to PeV level due to betatron radiation in plasma-based accelerators

In plasma-based accelerators, electrons are accelerated by ultrahigh gradient of 1–100  GV/m and undergo the focusing force with the same order as the accelerating force. Heated electrons are injected in a plasma wake and exhibit the betatron oscillation that generates synchrotron radiation. Intense...
