Abstract : We have investigated numerically the coupling between a 10 \si{MeV} electron bunch of high charge (§I{> 100}{pc}) with a laser generated accelerating plasma wave. Our results show that a high efficiency coupling can be achieved using a §I{50}{TW}, §I{100}{μ \meter} wide laser beam, yielding accelerating field above §I{1}{ GV/m}. We propose an experiment where these predictions could be tested.
