  1. Proton Driven Plasma Wakefield Acceleration – AWAKE – Project

  2. Outline • Introduction • Plasma Wakefield Acceleration • Mandate of the AWAKE project • AWAKE Project Structure and Organization • AWAKE Project Studies

  3. Why In recent years several Laser or Electron-driven Plasma Wakefield experiments: • E.g. SLAC (2007) 50GV/m over 0.8m with electron-driven PWA  some electrons doubled energy from 42GeV to 80GeV Advantage of proton driven plasma wakefield acceleration: • high stored energy available in the driver. • Existing proton bunches carry many kJ of stored energy (high power lasers carry 1-5 J) • Reduces drastically the number of required driver stages.  Proof-of principle demonstration experiment proposed at SPS: • first beam-driven wakefield acceleration experiment in Europe, and the first Proton-Driven PWA experiment worldwide.

  4. Introduction • Letter of Intent: positive review in SPSC October 2011 • Research Board December 2011: •  submit Conceptual Design Report during following year • June 2012: • Official CERN AWAKE project (including project-budget) with mandate sent by S. Myers to DHs. • CERN project leader (E.G.) •  organize CERN efforts to produce parts of CDR under CERN responsibility • CDR includes detailed budget, CERN manpower and schedule plans for design, construction, installation and commissioning. • Deliverables: • End 2012:  preliminary report summarizing the ongoing study to the A&T sector Management • Q1 2013:  Conceptual Design Report to the A&T sector Management. AWAKE collaboration: 25 institutes

  6. Principle of Plasma Wakefield Acceleration II • SPS beam: rms length of ~12cm • But strong self-modulation effect of proton beam due to transverse wakefield in plasma • Starts from any perturbation and grows exponentially until fully modulated. • Ultra-short bunch slices are naturally produced with a spacing of plasma wavelength lp. p-beam density profile after 4.8m propagation in plasma. • Seeding of bunch modulation with laser: •  Ionization of Plasma •  Produce start of bunch-modulation in a controlled way gas Plasma Intense short laser pulse co-propagates with proton bunch.  plasma get ionized at fixed position.  generates large perturbation and seeds modulation. proton bunch laser pulse

  7. Principle of Plasma Wakefield Acceleration III Inject electron beam to accelerate Electron bunch injected off-axis at an angle and some metresdownstream along the plasma-cell:  merges with the proton bunch once the modulation is developed. Longitudinal electric field generated in plasma as function of propagation distance.  100-1000MV/m.  Particle-in-cellsimulationspredictaccelerationofinjectedelectronstobeyond 1 GeV.

  9. Beam Specifications Proton beam specifications Electron beam specifications Laser: 30fs, 800nm, ~TW. R & D facility:  frequent access to plasma cell, laser, etc… needed.

  10. Mandate of CERN AWAKE Project • Identify the best site for installation of the facility on the SPS by carrying out a study covering: • The design of the proton beam-line from the SPS to the entry point of the plasma cell, to meet the required parameters. • The design of the downstream beam-line from the plasma cell to the beam dump. • The design the common beam-line for the proton, electron and laser light beam at the entry into the plasma cell. Specification of the parameters for these incoming beams. • The design of the experimental area (envelope) considering layout optimization of all components in the area. • The study of access possibilities and assess radiation and safety aspects. • The study of the general infrastructures (Civil Engineering, Access, CV, EL, transport, handling, control). • The physics program that could be carried out on each site. • The comparison of the cost and of the schedule of the alternative sites. • Based on the study, recommend a site for the facility and deliver the chapters, covering the beam line, the experimental area and all interfaces and services at CERN, in the conceptual design report (CDR) of the AWAKE CERN facility. The CDR should include the points mentioned in the section above plus the following information: • Specification of the baseline beam parameters to be used for the design. • Predictions of measurable quantities in the diagnostic instrumentation. • Specification of diagnostic instrumentation in the experimental area. • Design and interface with the electron beam up to the plasma cell. • Study all interfaces between the different systems (plasma cell, electron beam, proton beam, laser…) • Evaluation of time scale and costs of all items at a level needed for the CDR. • Evaluate dismantling feasibility and cost.

Beam Impact on Dump  Muon Dose Estimates I Helmut Vincke DGS/RP West hall CERN fence • Make sure that radiation levels from muons are below RP criteria: • Optimization criteria: dose rate at end of West hall must be below 100 mSv/year and at CERN fence below 10 mSv/year • Distance between beam impact point and end of West hall: ~300 m • Distance between beam impact point to CERN fence: ~600 m
