الوصف: | Abstract Plasma wakefield acceleration revolutionized the field of particle accelerators by generating gigavolt-per-centimeter fields. To compete with conventional radio-frequency (RF) accelerators, plasma technology must demonstrate operation at high repetition rates, with a recent research showing feasibility at megahertz levels using an Argon source that recovered after about 60 ns. Here we report about a proof-of-principle experiment that demonstrates the recovery of a Hydrogen plasma at the sub-nanosecond timescale. The result is obtained with a pump-and-probe setup and has been characterized for a wide range of plasma densities. We observed that large plasma densities reestablish their initial state soon after the injection of the pump beam ( 13 ns). The results are supported with numerical simulations and represent a step forward for the next-generation of compact high-repetition rate accelerators. |
