AB - The FACET accelerator test facility at SLAC hosts a new generation of Plasma Wakefield Acceleration (PWFA) experiments. "Two-bunch" experiments have demonstrated high-gradient, highly efficient energy transfer in a plasma wakefield. I will discuss results of follow-up experiments that use a 1.3 meter long plasma to accelerate witness bunch electrons to even higher energies. In a first, we observed multi-GeV acceleration of positrons in a plasma. This is a critical step in demonstrating the applicability of PWFA for High-Energy Physics applications.
