Abstract
A hybrid of laser-wakefield and plasma-wakefield accelerators is propo sed, in which an intense laser pulse is optically guided by a plasma c hannel created by the leading portion of a high-current, low-energy el ectron beam. This accelerator configuration,appears to combine advanta geously features of both laser-wakefield and plasma-wakefield accelera tors.
