I always wondered why there is so little study/progress on plasma Wakefield acceleration, given that there's such a need of more and more powerful accelerator to study presently unaccessible energy regions. Is that because there's a fundamental limit which cannot be used to create giant plasma based accelerator or it's just a poorly explored avenue?
It's a growing field. One of my roommates is working on plasma waveguides, a related technology.
