The basic concepts of plasma acceleration and its possibilities were originally conceived by Toshiki Tajima and Prof. John M. Dawson of UCLA in 1979
I believe it should be 10 GV/m instead of 10 TeV/m. - Rasmus Ischebeck
A question: can this technique replace "ordinary" particle accelerators, like the Fermilab or CERN? I assume the answer is no, at least for now, or else it would have been done. So let me rephrase the question: is it possible that plasma accelerators will some day replace circular and/or linear accelerators? There's some discussion at the main Particle Accelerator page, but I would think there could be more discussion here (unless it's just unknown at present--but even that would be good to say here, IMHO). If not, is it because it's not possible in principle to get to those high energies, or because the beam that would be produced wouldn't be coherent enough? Mcswell 03:40, 17 February 2007 (UTC)
The article Surfatron is orphaned and has little content, so i proposed merging its facility list into this article, of course only if no one objects within two weeks. BR84 ( talk) 23:00, 18 December 2011 (UTC)

PDPWFA is one of the candidates for a post-LHC accelerator, and isn't mentioned yet in the article. I don't really know enough about the innards of this technology to write a section on it. 109.151.126.219 ( talk) 13:56, 7 April 2013 (UTC)
I added proton bunch as an option for PWFA in the Comparison with RF acceleration section since there wasn't a specific mention of PDPWFA. I'm not sure if the distinction is important enough that these should be split into two bullet points. Jadzia626 ( talk) 16:14, 27 January 2016 (UTC)
