We have proposed an experimental study of the proton-driven plasma wakefield acceleration by using proton beam from the CERN SPS. In this paper, the particle-in-cell (PIC) simulation of the SPS beam-driven plasma wakefield acceleration is introduced. By varying the beam parameters and plasma parameters, simulation shows that electric fields in excess of 1 GeV/m can be achieved.

Proton-driven plasma wakefield acceleration (PDPWA) has been proposed as an approach to accelerate electron beam to TeV energy regime in a single passage of plasma channel. An experimental test is recently proposed to demonstrate the capability of PDPWA by using proton beams from the CERN SPS. The preparation of experiment is introduced. The particle-in-cell simulation results based on realistic beam parameters are presented.

Ion Instability Study for the ILC 3 km Damping Ring

G.X. Xia
MPI-P, München, Germany

The ILC GDE is currently pushing the cost reduction for all subsystems of the ILC project for the Technique Design Phase 1. A short damping ring with circumference of 3.2 km was developed for this purpose. Based on this lattice, we performed a weak-strong simulation study of the ion instability in the electron damping ring for various beam parameters and vacuum pressures. The simulation results are given in this paper.
