Beam loading assisted matching scheme for high quality plasma acceleration in linear regime

We propose and we numerically design a working point for beam driven plasma wakefield acceleration that allows us to preserve the witness quality. This working point is a new scheme where a low density driver generates a wakefield in linear regime and the witness transverse evolution is dominated by...
