Scientific paper

The planned underdense plasma lens experiment at the UCLA Neptune Laboratory is presented. For this experiment, a LaB_6-based discharge plasma source was developed and tested. It was proved that the plasma source can produce an argon plasma in the density range of low 10^12 cm-3. For the experiment, electron beams with an energy of 16 MeV, a charge of 4 nC, a pulse duration (FWHM) of 30 ps are generated from the 1.6-cell photocathode RF gun and PWT linac. The electron beams are designed to propagate through an underdense plasma with a few cm thickness. To predict the experimental result, computer simulations with a 2 and 1/2 dimensional particle-in-cell code (MAGIC) were performed. In this presentation, the plasma source test and simulation results are described.
