The first experimental results from the FLASHForward beamline have been accepted by PRL! Not bad for the very first weekend of data taking last Aug. Learn all about how to remove a pesky correlated energy spread with a tunable plasma dechirper here: arxiv.org/abs/1810.06307
Get your flights booked for the inaugural FLASHForward Collaboration Meeting at DESY Dec 4-6th! There'll be enough bratwurst, glühwein, and plasma-wakefield physics for all. Learn more and register on our indico page indico.desy.de/indico/event/…
Beam-driven one-two punch in PRL from DESY: Let Alberto Martinez de la Ossa of the FLASHForward Team explain you how to prevent the hosing instability: journals.aps.org/prl/abstrac…
FLASHForward>> Team was involved in record transformer ratio measurements in a plasma wakefield at PITZ, DESY Zeuthen. Read about it here: journals.aps.org/prl/abstrac…
First double bunch generation at FLASHForward using the scraper. Next stop external injection...! Congrats to Slava, Sarah, and all who contributed.

Making waves for science: electron beam generates strong wakefield in plasma at the plasma accelerator project @FForwardDESY for the first time. Next up: surfing electrons desy.de/news/news_search/ind… #plasmawakefield #accelerator
First plasma generation at FLASHForward! Great work, everyone. One giant leap towards beam-plasma interaction...
STOP THE PRESS! The FLASHForward experiment is front page news in this quarter's DESY inFORM magazine. Check out all the latest info in the full article here: desy.de/news/desy_inform/onl…
Congratulations to the @beschleunigerma nnschaft for sending first beam to the FForward spectrometer! a well deserved #kümmelmoment
The FLASHForward @beschleunigerma nnschaft took first orbit response data and operated successfully in FLASH3 mode. Outstanding progress!
A. Martinez de la Ossa of the FLASHForward team published a paper on density-downramp injection today. See journals.aps.org/prab/abstra…

This morning, first electron beams from FLASH were sent down the new FLASHForward beamline. Great work @Beschleunigermannschaft!
Article on FLASHForward and project scientist John Dale appears in the Hamburger Abendblatt (in German): abendblatt.de/nachrichten/ar…
The first FLASHForward section is completed and FF>> is now connected to the FLASH vacuum. Excellent work by our engineers & technicians!
FLASHForward 25 TW laser was locked to FLASH master clock today for the first time. Great work by Jost Müller and Holger’s team from MSK!
Today, talk by Johannes Wenz (LMU) at 15:00, in SR1b at DESY about Laser Wakefield Accelerators in Bavaria! Please join.
