Moving to THz frequencies could potentially allow larger bunches to be captured and accelerated. Here the THz is generated via Cherenkov radiation in a non-linear dielectric from a laser pulse. Two schemes are proposed either by accelerating in a dielectric waveguide or by creating a travelling focus in the THz allowing direct acceleration. PB - JACoW Publishing CP - Geneva, Switzerland ER -
