先进的质子驱动等离子体韦克菲尔德加速实验(AWAKE)旨在研究质子束团驱动等离子体韦克菲尔德的产生和电子加速。这是CERN的一项原理验证研发实验,也是世界上第一个质子驱动等离子体韦克菲尔德加速实验。AWAKE实验将安装在前CNGS设施中,并使用来自SPS的400 GeV/c质子束团。第一个实验将集中在等离子体中的长(均方根类似于12厘米)质子束的自调制不稳定性。这些实验计划于2016年底进行。之后,在2017/2018年,低能(类似于15 MeV)电子将被外部注入样本尾流场,并被加速到超过1 GeV。实验的主要目标将被总结。将介绍AWAKE的设计和施工状况。(C)2016年6月,作者。由爱思唯尔公司出版
The Advanced Proton Driven Plasma Wakefield Acceleration Experiment (AWAKE) aims at studying plasma wakefield generation and electron acceleration driven by proton bunches. It is a proof-of-principle R&D experiment at CERN and the world's first proton driven plasma wakefield acceleration experiment. The AWAKE experiment will be installed in the former CNGS facility and uses the 400 GeV/c proton beam bunches from the SPS. The first experiments will focus on the self-modulation instability of the long (rms similar to 12 cm) proton bunch in the plasma. These experiments are planned for the end of 2016. Later, in 2017/2018, low energy (similar to 15 MeV) electrons will be externally injected into the sample wake fields and be accelerated beyond 1 GeV. The main goals of the experiment will be summarized. A summary of the AWAKE design and construction status will be presented. (C) 2016 The Authors. Published by Elsevier B.V.
