The discussion will concern:
-
baseline parameter definition at 1 GeV (and maybe 5 GeV);
-
identification of a suitable plasma regime (linear, non-linear etc) and plasma target;
-
discuss driver and witness pulse shaping, if required;
-
beam/plasma matching conditions and scaling laws;
-
energy spread compensation, if required ;
-
required diagnostics tools;
-
start-to-end simulations;
-
test experiments at FLASHForward or SPARC.
