Phys. Rev. ST Accel. Beams 8, 071301 (2005) [7 pages]Electric and magnetic wakefields in a plasma channel
Pallavi Jha, Punit Kumar, Ajay K. Upadhyaya, and Gaurav Raj Received 29 November 2004; published 18 July 2005 A detailed analytical study of plasma wakefield generation in a wide parabolic plasma channel is reported. A perturbative technique involving orders of the incident laser beam and the effects of inhomogeneity of the plasma density is used to obtain explicit electric as well as magnetic wakefields. The axial and transverse forces acting on a test electron due to the wakefields have been evaluated. ©2005 The American Physical Society
