"Recent advancements in generation of intense X-ray laser ultrashort pulses open opportunities for particle acceleration in solid-state plasmas. Wakefield acceleration in crystals or carbon nanotubes shows promise of unmatched ultra-high accelerating gradients and possibility to shape the future of high energy physics colliders. This book summarizes the discussions of the "Workshop on Beam Acceleration in Crystals and Nanostructures" (Fermilab, June 24-25 , 2019), presents next steps in theory and modeling and outlines major physics and technology challenges toward proof-of-principle demonstration experiments"--
From a June 2019 workshop at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory in Batavia, Illinois, 18 papers explore beam acceleration in crystals and nanostructures and related brilliant beams, new laser technologies, and global perspectives. The topics include novel laser-plasma teravolt electron-positron linear colliders, experience with crystals at Fermilab Accelerators, the solid-state Tube Wakefield Accelerator using surface waves in crystals, a survey of fiber laser technology in light of laser particle accelerator, and a demonstration of thin film compression for short-pulse X-ray generation.
