Abstract. Wake field forces that are induced within the vacuum gap of a planar dielectric-loaded
waveguide along which a matched planar beam is propagating have been analyzed analytically.
When femtosecond, pico-Coulomb bunches from a LACARA-driven optically-chopped beam are
used, it is shown that accelerating wake fields in the range of 100's of MV/m can be produced.
Stability issues for this arrangement are examined based on field expansion in symmetric and antisymmetric LSM and LSE modes.
INTRODUCTION
Wake field accelerators [1-9] are generally attractive because no external source of
radiation is needed to generate the accelerating fields. In such an accelerator, an electron
bunch (drive bunch) passes through a waveguide partially filled with dielectric where the
Cerenkov condition is satisfied, and hence excites wake radiation fields, which are used
to accelerate a second electron bunch (test bunch) at a suitable distance behind the drive
bunch; in other words, the drive bunch imparts its energy to the test bunch through
Cerenkov and inverse Cerenkov effects. In a dielectric-loaded waveguide, the Cerenkov
radiation spectrum is discrete, since waves radiated from charged particles and those
reflected from boundaries interfere with one another [10].
Although all the
electromagnetic modes excited by the drive bunch have different frequencies, they have
an identical phase velocity, equal to the velocity of the drive bunch [1].
Gai and his coworkers have demonstrated experimentally wake field effects in a
single-mode dielectric structure and found that experimental results agree reasonably well
with theoretical predictions for a single drive bunch [1]. Different approaches have been
developed to examine wake fields in a dielectric-loaded cylindrical wavegiude [2,3,6]
and in a planar dielectric structure [4,5,9]. A fair degree of attention was aimed at
transverse stability in the wake field acceleration scheme. It was shown that transverse
wake fields do not vanish even in the ultrarelativistic limit [2,3], but are proportionately
smaller than in an iris-loaded metallic structure [3]. Results for bunch dynamics from an
analytic theory [6] indicate that use of the high wake field acceleration gradients that can
be generated in a cylindrical dielectric-loaded waveguide will involve serious issues of
transverse stability, since strong destabilizing transverse forces automatically accompany
strong longitudinal acceleration gradients [8].

The idea of coherent superposition of Cerenkov radiation in a wake field accelerator
was proposed [5], in which a succession of drive bunches are positioned in such a way
that they all lie in the decelerating wake fields of the preceding drive bunches; these drive
bunches lose additional energy to produce a stronger accelerating field for a trailing test
bunch. Since all the modes excited by the drive bunch have the same phase velocity,
multimode constructive interference to produce a sharp peaked wake field is also
possible. An experimental demonstration of a multimode wake field caused by a train of
drive bunches has been carried out at ANL, where it was confirmed that the wake field
from a train of bunches can be superimposed [7]. A further supporting experiment has
been proposed [11].
The planar dielectric-lined rectangular waveguide in a wake field accelerator has
some advantages over the cylindrical dielectric-loaded waveguide. The planar structure
can be easily tuned to correct eigenmode frequency errors, and can store more energy for
a given bunch charge [9]; it can pass more beam charge and has better stability to
transverse beam deflection than a cylindrical structure of comparable dimension [4],
particularly if the ratio of the beam height to width is > 10. Prior investigations on the
planar structure have been made based on a two-dimensional (2D) model [4,5]. Although
a 2D-analysis can simplify calculation and enable one to obtain useful conceptual
information, it will obviate knowledge of important details about field transverse
distributions, especially when transverse wake field effects are important. Recently, a
full three-dimensional analysis has been published [9]. The authors employed
longitudinal section electric (LSE) modes and longitudinal section magnetic (LSM)
modes [12] to match boundary conditions and obtained dispersion relations for
symmetric modes, in which the axial electric field is symmetric about the central plane
parallel to the two dielectric slabs loaded in the waveguide. Symmetric LSE and LSM
modes are sufficient to expand wake fields produced by ideal symmetric drive bunches.
However, anti-symmetric LSE and LSM modes (see Appendix I) should be included
when any asymmetry of drive bunches is involved or stability issues need to be
examined. Thus, the use of only symmetric LSE and LSM modes to describe wake fields
with neglect of anti-symmetric LSE and LSM modes will not allow a full analysis of
bunch stability.
A complete theory for excitation of wake fields in 3D planar dielectric-lined
waveguides, similar in structure to a prior theory for cylindrical waveguides [6], has been
formulated. In addition to finding analytic solutions for the wake fields themselves,
analytic formulas have been derived for the forces on a test particle moving in the wake
of other particles. These latter solutions are needed to explore questions of stability.
This paper presents calculation results with this theory for femtosecond, pico-Coulomb
bunches from a LAser Cyclotron AutoResonance Accelerator (LACARA) driven
optically-chopped beam [13]. The schematic of LACARA-chopped slab bunch in the
planar dielectric structure of the waveguide (not drawn) is shown in Fig. 1. For the
examples to be discussed in this paper, the bunch is taken to be 3.5 fsec in duration (~1
jim) and 10 jim x 150 jim in transverse dimensions, containing ~1 pC and having energy
-500 MeV.

WAKE FIELDS AND FORCES
A summary is given below of the analytic forms for the wake fields, and of the
corresponding longitudinal and transverse forces, for a rectangular dielectric-lined
waveguide structure as shown in Fig. 1 with height d, outer width 2b, and inner (vacuum)
width 2a. The source function for the wake fields is a point charge qQ located at (x0,y0)
that moves parallel to the z-axis with velocity v0 = c f i z . For finite-extent bunches, fields
and forces are obtained by summing over point charges.

Similar considerations apply for finite charge distributions in y. As a consequence, one
can see that in the limit as the structure height d —> °o, if the beam height equals the
structure height, one has for the form factor sin(/7r/2)/(/7z;/2). This is zero for / even, and
decreases in magnitude as l~l for / odd, limiting the number of modes that make a
significant contribution.
NUMERICAL EXAMPLES
Some examples of the calculated longitudinal force Fz = -qEz on a test electron at x =
y = 0 are presented in Ref. [13] for one to ten 1-pC, 500 MeV symmetric sheet bunches
each with width, height and length of 10, 150, and 1 jim injected symmetrically into the
planar dielectric structure described Fig. 1 with 2a = 15 jim, 2b = 18.8 jim, and dielectric
constant s =3.0. The bunch spacing is chosen to be equal to the fundamental wake field
period of 20 jim, so that cumulative build-up of the field from successive bunches can
occur. It has been shown in Ref. [13] that the calculated peak wake field amplitude of 40
MV/m from a single bunch is in good agreement with the value found in KARAT
simulations. Uniform build-up of the maximum wake field to nearly 600 MV/m from ten
bunches can be reached. These results affirm the expectation that injection of a train of
pC sheet bunches into a micron-scale dielectric wake field structure could lead to
accelerating wake fields that approach 1 GV/m.
Here the same parameters of beam bunch and dielectric structure mentioned above
are used to examine the issue of stability with the analytic formulas (Eq. 10, etc.) for the
forces behind a moving bunch. In Figs. 2 and 3, examples are given for Fz and Fx, the
longitudinal and transverse forces at locations behind a drive bunch where one would
position either a test bunch for acceleration, or a second drive bunch for building up the
wakefield. The locations chosen are for a 1 pC drive bunch that has advanced to z = 800
jim. For a symmetrically-injected 10-|im wide drive bunch, at z = 788 jim the on-axis
accelerating force is 43.05 MeV/m, while at z = 779 jim the on-axis decelerating force is
-41.9 MeV/m. Figs. 2a and 2b show the longitudinal and transverse force profiles at
these two locations. For reference, the drive bunch profile is superimposed on each
figure (although it is located ahead at z = 800 jim). One sees a gentle transverse variation
in longitudinal force, which will give rise to spreads in either acceleration (Fig. 2a) or
deceleration (Fig. 2b). One sees a transverse force profile that passes through zero on the
structure axis; it is stabilizing (i.e., focusing) at the acceleration location (Fig. 2a), but is
destabilizing (i.e., defocusing) at the deceleration location (Fig. 2b).

symmetric 10-|im wide drive bunch is also shown.

In a second example, the 1-pC drive bunch is taken as being injected parallel to, but
displaced 1.5 jim from, the structure axis. Fig. 3 shows the force profiles, also at the
accelerating location z = 788 jim (Fig. 3a) and at the decelerating location z = 779 jim
(Fig. 3b). Again, the transverse drive bunch profile is superimposed on the figures. The
results show the longitudinal force profiles to be non-symmetric, with variations that are
about a factor-or-two greater than for the symmetric bunch case of Fig. 2. Likewise, the
transverse force profiles are non-symmetric: stabilizing at z = 788 jim, but with respect
to the point x = -1.3 jim rather than the axis; and destabilizing at z = 779 jim.

would be accelerated towards the right-hand dielectric wall.
Determination of the exact consequence of a finite transverse force Fx as shown in
Figs. 2 and 3 requires a dynamical calculation of transverse motion of test particles in the
given non-uniform field. However, a simple estimate can be made for the case of a
constant force Fx . An electron with no initial transverse velocity will follow a trajectory
(Fx/2moy)(t-t0)2 , where (x0,t0) are initial values.
Since we have
(t-t0)=(z-z0 )/c = Az/c , then the distance Az that an electron can travel before being

in Eq. 13 (containing sma>0t) describes Cerenkov radiation, and is identical to that
obtained for an axially-unbounded cylinder [6,8]. The first term (containing sinfttf) is
due to the presence of the boundaries, and describes transition and precursor radiation. It
can be seen that, for each mode (m,ri) an interference between the two terms results. An
important manifestation of this interference is the apparent decay from phase mixing of
the wake field at relatively short distances from the boundary, after summing over all the
excited modes. The KARAT simulations give undeniable evidence for this interference
phenomenon. However, only as the analytical tools develop further, and as the theory is
applied to rectangular structures of the type discussed in this paper, will a full
understanding of this complex effect be understood. As stated above, a full
understanding is crucial for the design and interpretation of wake field accelerator
experiments.

FIGURE AI-1. Planar dielectric-loaded rectangular waveguide.

In an empty uniform waveguide with perfect conducting boundaries, TE and TM
modes are eigenmodes and they can exist independently. In a dielectric-loaded
waveguide, a single TE or TM mode usually is not an eigenmode and thus cannot exist
independently; they may couple to one another through boundary conditions to constitute
eigenmodes. Here we use TE and TM mode fields to match boundary conditions and
derive dispersion relations including symmetric and anti-symmetric LSE and LSM
modes.
In region-I, the field solutions with respect to the variable x need only satisfy
continuity relations at the dielectric-vacuum boundary, unlike in region-II where the
fields are specified (i.e. vanishing of tangential E and normal H). Therefore, in region-I,
four possible combinations for functions with respect to x can be possible. These are
given by
1. {£z ~ cos(£ljcx), Hz - sm(klxx)} ,
2. {Ez - sin(£ljcx), Hz - cos(klxx)} ,
3. {Ez - cos(klxx\ Hz - cos(£ljcx)} ,
4. {Ez - sin(£ljcx), Hz
where klx is the wave number in the x-direction. For symmetric LSE and LSM modes,
the axial electric field is symmetric about x and the axial magnetic field is anti-symmetric
and vice versa. Therefore, combination- 1 corresponds to symmetric LSE and LSM
modes, combination-2 corresponds to anti-symmetric LSE and LSM modes. However, it
can be shown that combinations-3 and -4 cannot consistently satisfy boundary conditions
at x = a and x = -a.
Symmetric LSE and LSM Modes
In the region-I ( - a < x < a ), the axial field components are given by
where kly = —— , and k2x + k2y + k2 = /Ltlel a*2 , and the propagation factor el(0)t~kz^ in the
above is suppressed. All the transverse components can be obtained from the axial
components. For the right region-II (a < x < b) , the axial field components are given by
538
where k2x + k2y + k] = /J,2£2 co2 .
When these fields are used to match boundary conditions at x = a, we obtain the
symmetric LSM and LSE mode dispersion equation, given by
(symmetric LSM mode factor)

These are the modes considered by by Xiao, Gai, and Sun [9].
Anti-symmetric LSE and LSM Modes

APPENDIX II
The original formula in Ref. [14] was derived for the increment in transverse
momentum imparted to a fast charged particle passing through an rf cavity along its axis,
with boundary conditions at the cavity ends taken into account. Strictly speaking, this
formula cannot be used to obtain the local relationship between transverse and axial
forces. Tremaine and Rosenzweig generalized Panofsky and Wenzel's formula with the
assumption that the differential operator V can be taken out from the integrand within a
path integral [4]. The same assumption is taken in Ref. [17]. Usually that procedure is
not justifiable. Here we present a strict proof of the Panofsky-Wenzel theorem for a
translationally-invariant system, such as a dielectric-loaded wake field accelerator.
Suppose that in a longitudinally uniform waveguide a test particle with a charge of q
moves following a drive particle, both with the same constant velocity v = zv with z the
longitudinal unit vector. The relation between the transverse and axial forces
experienced by the test particle will here be shown to be given locally and
instantaneously by

(Aii-i)
Since the test particle is at rest relative to the drive particle, the fields produced by the
drive particle and experienced by the test particle are not changing in time. Thus the
fields seen by the test particle obey the equations
Using the above and V x E = - 9B/8/ , we have

The last step used the fact that (v x B)Z = 0 .
Similarly, we have VxF = qVxE + qVx(\xB)=-q(dB/dt + v - V B ) = 0 , from
which F can be obtained from a scalar potential, as indicated in Eq. (1 1).
Obviously, the above proof holds for particles moving through a longitudinally
uniform dielectric-loaded waveguide system when the test particle is synchronous with
all the wake fields produced by the drive particle. However, when a test particle moves
through an rf cavity or waveguide which supports fast wave fields, Eq. (AII-1) does not
hold because the test particle cannot remain synchronous with the fast wave, resulting in
breakdown of Eq. (AII-2). In such a case, the relation between transverse and axial
forces experienced by the test particle becomes more complicated [18].
