Phys. Rev. A 40, 6752–6754 (1989)Wake-field accelerator in a magnetized electron-positron plasma
A short pulse of intense electromagnetic radiation may excite large-amplitude wake fields (E>1 GeV/m) in a magnetized electron-positron plasma and, consequently, electron or positron bunches may be accelerated to high energies. Such a mechanism exists in the pulsar magnetosphere, and its realization in the laboratory may accomplish the promising method for the generation of high-energy accelerators. © 1989 The American Physical Society URL:
