	Funding: This work performed in part under DOE Contract DE-AC02-76SF00515. We study the physics of self-modulation instability (SMI) of long, when compared to the wake wavelength, electron and positron bunches in pre-formed plasmas at SLAC-FACET. Self-modulation is the result of the action of focusing/defocusing transverse wakefields on the bunch radius. Self-modulation leads to observables such as overall defocusing of the bunch, periodic modulation of the bunch radius at the wake period and multi-GeV energy gain/loss by drive bunch particles. Defocusing is observed from OTR images, radial self-modulation from CTR spectra and interferometric traces and energy gain/loss from energy spectra with sub-GeV resolution. The plasma density is varied by changing the vapor density ionized by a laser/axicon system. The bunch length, radius and charge can also be varied. The SMI can be seeded using a notch collimator system. Numerical simulations indicate that seeding the SMI mitigates the hose instability. Hose instability can also be seeded, for example by using the RF deflecting cavity to impart a tilt to the incoming bunch axis. The overall experimental plan as well as the latest experimental results obtained with electron bunches will be presented.
