| abstract: | The plasma density transition trapping experiment is designed to capture an electron beam and modify its quality (emittance, energy spread, and brightness) via a plasma wake-field [1]. The Particle Beam Physics Laboratory (PBPL) transition-trapping plasma experiment requires a chamber to support the confined plasma source, in-vacuum diagnostics and associated hardware. Initial measurements on the plasma source utilized a chamber initially created for an underdense plasma lens experiment [2]. However, current research and future positioning of the plasma source required drastic improvements of nearly all facets of the chamber design. The initial plan was to rearrange the plasma source to move the interaction box onto the opposite side of the pumping-Tee (see picture below). This proved successful to measure plasma densities at or above the required value to carry out the plasma transition-trapping experiment. However, because the original design of the interaction box did not have an exit port for the beamline, a new box design became necessary. A decision was made to redesign the plasma chamber from scratch. The proposed design and specifications are described in this note. |
