Abstract Feasibility of a focusing element using the transverse fields provided by a plasma cell was studied numerically. In this paper, an experimental set up is proposed for various beam parameters available from the VELA and CLARA beam lines at Daresbury Laboratory. 2D simulation results from VSim, and expected results from planned measurement stations are presented. Field properties and the advantages and disadvantages of such an instrument compared to conventional focusing elements are discussed.
