Particle beams with highly asymmetric emittance ratios are expected at the interaction point of high energy colliders. These asymmetric beams can be used to drive high gradient wakefields in dielectrics and plasma. In the case of plasma, the high aspect ratio of the drive beam creates a transversely elliptical blowout cavity and the asymmetry in the ion column creates asymmetric focusing in the two transverse planes. The ellipticity of the blowout depends on the ellipticity and normalized charge density of the beam. In this paper, simulations are performed to investigate the ellipticity of the wakefield based on the initial driver beam parameters. The matching conditions for this elliptical cavity are discussed. Example cases for employment using the attainable parameter space at the AWA and FACET facilities are also presented.
