Abstract
Simulation and analysis of the ion motion in a plasma wakefield accelerator is presented for the parameters required for a future ILC afterburner. We show that although ion motion leads to substantial emittance growth for extreme parameters of future colliders in the submicron transverse beam size regime, several factors that can mitigate the effect are explored. These include synchrotron radiation damping, plasma density gradients and hot plasmas.
