Abstract :
The Advanced Accelerator Test Facility (AATF) has been used to study wakefield acceleration and focusing in plasmas and RF structures. A PC-based system incorporating the functions of beamline control and acquisition, storage, and preliminary analysis of video images from luminescent screen beam diagnostics is described. General features of the offline analysis of wakefield data are also discussed
