TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated a new technique for microwave detection of cosmic-ray extensive air showers which relies on detection of expected continuum radiation in the microwave range, caused by free-electron collisions with neutrals in the tenuous plasma left after the passage of the shower.

TL;DR: Measurements of (11-18)-cm wavelength radio emission from interactions of 15.2 MeV pulsed electron bunches at the Argonne Wakefield Accelerator emulate the large electron excess expected to develop during an electromagnetic cascade initiated by an ultrahigh-energy particle.

TL;DR: This Letter reports on using the emittance-exchange method to generate a shaped drive bunch to experimentally demonstrate a TR≈5 in a dielectric wakefield accelerator.

TL;DR: In this paper, a beamline experiment was performed with the metamaterial-loaded waveguide, where a 6 MeV electron beam passes through the waveguide and generates a wakefield via the Cherenkov radiation mechanism.

TL;DR: A simple method is developed, based on the incident slope of the bunch, to significantly suppress the perturbations in the exchange process and generate a tunable longitudinal bunch shape.
