Acceleration of an Electron Bunch with a Non–Gaussian Transverse Profile in Proton-Driven Plasma Wakefield

Acceleration of an Electron Bunch with a Non–Gaussian Transverse Profile in Proton-Driven Plasma Wakefield

Beam-driven plasma wakefield accelerators typically use the external injection to ensure controllable beam quality at injection. However, the externally injected witness bunch may exhibit a non-Gaussian transverse density distribution. Using particle-in-cell simulations, we show that the common beam...
