Most-cited papers in Physical Review Accelerators and Beams

FACET-II facility for advanced accelerator experimental tests

V. Yakimenko, L. Alsberg, E. Bong et al. · 9 Oct 2019

The National User Facility for Advanced Accelerator Experimental Tests II (FACET-II) at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory expands upon the experiments conducted at FACET. Its purpose is to build upon the decades-long experience developed conducting accelerator R at SLAC in the areas of advanced acceleration and coherent radiation techniques with high-energy electron and positron beams. This…

Machine learning-based longitudinal phase space prediction of particle accelerators

Claudio Emma, Auralee Edelen, Mark Hogan et al. · 16 Nov 2018

We report on the application of machine learning (ML) methods for predicting the longitudinal phase space (LPS) distribution of particle accelerators. Our approach consists of training a ML-based virtual diagnostic to predict the LPS using only nondestructive linac and e-beam measurements as inputs. We validate this approach with a simulation study for the FACET-II linac…

Direct longitudinal laser acceleration of electrons in free space

Sergio Carbajo, Emilio A. Nanni, Liang Jie Wong et al. · 24 Feb 2016

Compact laser-driven accelerators are pursued heavily worldwide because they make novel methods and tools invented at national laboratories widely accessible in science, health, security, and technology [V. Malka et al., Principles and applications of compact laser-plasma accelerators, Nat. Phys. 4, 447 (2008)]. Current leading laser-based accelerator technologies [S. P. D. Mangles et al., Monoenergetic beams…

Machine learning for orders of magnitude speedup in multiobjective optimization of particle accelerator systems

Auralee Edelen, Nicole Neveu, Matthias Frey et al. · 8 Apr 2020

High-fidelity physics simulations are powerful tools in the design and optimization of charged particle accelerators. However, the computational burden of these simulations often limits their use in practice for design optimization and experiment planning. It also precludes their use as on-line models tied directly to accelerator operation. We introduce an approach based on machine learning…

High gradient experiments with <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><mml:mi>X</mml:mi></mml:math>-band cryogenic copper accelerating cavities

A. Cahill, J. B. Rosenzweig, Valery Dolgashev et al. · 23 Oct 2018

Vacuum radio-frequency (rf) breakdown is one of the major factors that limit operating accelerating gradients in rf particle accelerators. The occurrence of rf breakdowns was shown to be probabilistic, and can be characterized by a breakdown rate. Experiments with hard copper cavities showed that harder materials can reach larger accelerating gradients for the same breakdown…
