Observation of acceleration and deceleration in gigaelectron-volt-per-metre gradient dielectric wakefield accelerators
Wakefield accelerators are a cheaper and compact alternative to conventional particle accelerators for high-energy physics and coherent x-ray sources. Here, the authors demonstrate a field gradient in excess of a gigaelectron-volt-per-metre using a terahertz-frequency wakefield supported by a dielec...
