Pre-excitation studies for rubidium-plasma generation
2014
The key element in the Proton-Driven-Plasma-Wake-Field-Accelerator (PWFA) project is the generation of highly uniform plasma from Rubidium vapor. A scientifically straightforward, yet highly challenging way to achieve full ionization is to use high power laser which can assure the barrier suppression ionization (BSI) along the 10 m long active region. The Wigner-team in Budapest is investigating an alternative way of uniform plasma generation. The proposed Resonance Enhanced Multi-Photon Ionization (REMPI) scheme can be probably realized by much less laser power. In the following we plan to investigate the resonant pre-excitations of the Rb atoms, both theoretically and experimentally. In the following our theoretical framework is presented together with the status report about the preparatory work of the planned experiment.
