Abstract The E-209 experiment currently running at SLAC- FACET used a long electron bunch (∼ 5 times the plasma wavelength) to drive plasma wakefields through the self- modulation instability. In this work we present and analyze numerical simulation results performed with the particle-in- cell (PIC) code OSIRIS. The results show that SMI saturates after 5cm of propagation in the plasma and that the maxi- mum acceleration wakefields, 15 − 20GV/m, are sustained over a 1m long plasma. Electron bunch energy loss of 4GeV was observed in the simulations.
