abstract = {Plasma-wakefield accelerators driven by intense particle
beams promise to significantly reduce the size of future
high-energy facilities. These applications require an
energy-efficient acceleration process with a well-controlled
energy spectrum, both of which can be achieved
simultaneously by tailoring the plasma wakefield.
Prerequisite for such control of the wakefield is its
precise measurement. Here we discuss a new measurement
technique that enables femtosecond-level sampling of the
longitudinal electric fields and that is particularly
powerful due to its operational simplicity. Using this
method, we experimentally demonstrated optimal beamloading
in a nonlinear electron-driven plasma accelerator by
wakefield flattening at the few-percent level. Bunches were
accelerated at a gradient of 1.3 GV/m and with an
energy-transfer efficiency of $(42±4)\%$ while preserving
per-mille energy spreads with full charge coupling. These
results open the door to high-quality operation of future
plasma accelerators through precise control of the
acceleration process.},
