Description
The S30XL/LESA beamline enables a unique opportunity to deliver plasma-accelerated beams to HEP users. The high-quality LCLS-II bunch can drive high-amplitude wakes in plasma, allowing for multi-GeV acceleration of electrons in a few centimeters. High energy acceleration of continuous spectrum electron beams has been demonstrated at both SLAC's FFTB and FACET facilities. Further tests are planned for FACET-II, which will demonstrate the viability of this approach for the S30XL/LESA beamline. We aim to deliver single electrons with energy greater than 20 GeV with precision timing to LESA users.
