Title :
Perspectives of laser acceleration by plasmoids in RF wells
Author_Institution :

Abstract :
Collective laser acceleration by plasmoids in moving RF wells (HF traps) differs from popular methods based on plasma waves by using forced oscillations of plasma instead of free ones, e.g., wakefields. A similar way is used in classic resonant accelerators and FELs. It simplifies the plasma problems at the price of large power of feeding lasers. Some results and perspectives are discussed
