Description
Betatron radiation spectroscopy is a valuable diagnostic technique for studying the interaction between a beam and a plasma in plasma wakefield acceleration (PWFA) experiments. In this project, we investigate the effects of beam perturbations on the betatron radiation. We analyze how perturbations can result in hosing, a transverse instability that can degrade the quality of the beam. We also study the spectral and angular characteristics of the betatron radiation emitted by the perturbed beam. Potential of betatron radiation spectroscopy as a non-invasive diagnostic technique for PWFA experiments is also highlighted.
