Transformer-ratio optimization in nonlinearly driven hollow plasma channels
Acceleration to high energies in electron-driven wakefield accelerators requires a carefully tailored drive beam. High driver currents can, however, modify the accelerating structure response, shifting the optimal driver profile. In this work we present a simple model to describe this nonlinear beam...
