contents In plasma wakefield accelerators, the structure of the blowout sheath is vital for the blowout radius and the electromagnetic field distribution inside the blowout. Previous theories assume artificial distribution functions for the sheath, which are either inaccurate or require prior knowledge of parameters. In this study, we develop an adiabatic sheath model based on force balancing, which leads to a self-consistent form of the sheath distribution. This model gives a better estimate of the blowout channel balancing radius than previous models.
