Abstract We present here the results of measurements made showing ~1 GV/m accelerating fields using a hollow dielectric-lined waveguide. The results are comprised of measurement of the energy loss of a high charge (~3 nC) ultrashort (~200 fs), ultra relativistic (20 GeV) beam and concomitant auto-correlation interferometeric techniques to obtain the frequency content of simultaneously generated coherent Cherenkov radiation (CCR). Experiments were conducted at the Facility for Advanced aCcelerator Experimental Tests (FACET) at the SLAC National Laboratory using metal-coated sub-millimeter diameter, ten-centimeter long fused silica tubes. We present simulation and theoretical results in support of the conclusions reached through experiment. These results build on previous work to provide a path towards high gradient accelerating structures for use in compact accelerator schemes, future linear colliders and free-electron lasers.
