Abstract
Wake field acceleration is one of several new mechanisms under consideration for use in future high energy accelerators as well as in compact linacs. Plasma, cavity structures, and dielectric media can each be used to generate wake fields when excited by the passage of a charged particle bunch. Acceleration of a separate trailing bunch of particles to high energy by these fields is the goal. A novel test facility developed at ANL now enables experimental investigation of many wake field concepts. Acceleration has been measured using several wake field devices, and comparison with theoretical predictions generally agree. Larger scale demonstration is now being planned to better evaluate practical limitations and use of the technique.
