High energy laser-wakefield collider with synchronous acceleration

A recent study on a high energy accelerator system which involves multistage laser wakefield acceleration shows that the system is very sensitive to jitters due to misalignment between the beam and the wakefield. In particular, the effect of jitters in the presence of a strong focusing wakefield and...
