      <abstract>The plasma wakefield accelerator, with acceleration gradients ranging from GeV/m to TeV/m, holds promise for propelling particles to high energies in linear colliders. This results in exceptionally bright beams characterized by intense ion-derived focusing, leading to the collapse of plasma ions. The non-uniform ion density triggers robust nonlinear focusing, potentially resulting in undesirable beam emittance growth. Our study extends prior research focused on electron acceleration by investigating ion-ion collisions, studying different collision models emphasizing the near-equilibrium state post-ion collapse utilizing the OSIRIS PIC code. Notably, our findings reveal that parametric excitations arising from plasma non-uniformity have an insignificant impact on phase space diffusion, a crucial insight for optimizing linear colliders.</abstract>
