Abstract
The use of gaseous plasmas to strongly focus high density, high energy electron and positron beams has been experimentally demonstrated. Focusing plasmas have been beam-induced. In addition, interesting aspects of laser-induced preionization of the target gas have been observed. Potential applications to luminosity enhancement for linear colliders warrant further development of these techniques with machine parameters in mind.
