Book Synopsis Relativistic Focusing and Beat Wave Phase Velocity Control in the Plasma Beat Wave Accelerator by : E. Esarey
Book excerpt: Relativistic focusing allows two colinear short pulse radiation beams, provided they are of sufficiently high power, to propagate through a plasma without diffracting. By further accounting for finite radial beam geometry, it is possible for the phase velocity of the radiation beat (ponderomotive) wave to equal the speed of light. The removes one of the limiting factors, phase detuning between the accelerated electrons and the beat wave, in determining the maximum energy gain in the plasma beat wave accelerator. (JHD).
