A series of plasma wakefield acceleration (PWFA) experiments are being conducted with a 30 GeV drive beam from the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC). These experiments continue to address the application of meter-scale plasmas to focus and accelerate electrons and positrons in the context of future applications to high-energy accelerators.
