摘要
We describe a novel plasma source developed at the Max Planck Institute for Physics that will be used for a proton driven plasma wakelield accelerator experiment at CERN. Rubidium vapor is confined in a 10 meter -long, 4 cm diameter, oil-heated stainless steel pipe. A laser pulse tunnel ionizes the vapor forming a 10-meter long, similar to 1 mm radius plasma with a range of densities around similar to 10(15) cm(-3). Access to the source is provided using custom manufactured fast valves. The source is designed to produce a plasma with a density uniformity of at least similar to 0.2%, during the beam-plasma interaction. (C) 2013 The Authors. Published by Elsevier B.V.
