Effect of transverse beam size on the wakefields and driver beam dynamics in plasma wakefield acceleration schemes
In this paper, wakefields driven by a relativistic electron beam in a cold homogeneous plasma are studied using 2D fluid simulation techniques. It has been shown that in the limit when the transverse size of a rigid beam is greater than the longitudinal extension, the wake wave acquires a purely ele...
