Spectrum bandwidth narrowing of Thomson scattering X-rays with energy chirped electron beams from laser wakefield acceleration

Tong Xu, Min Chen, Fei-Yu Li +3

We study incoherent Thomson scattering between an ultrashort laser pulse and an electron beam accelerated from a laser wakefield. The energy chirp effects of the accelerated electr…

Low transverse emittance electron bunches from two-color laser-ionization injection

Lu-Le Yu, Eric Esarey, Jean-Luc Vay +7

A method is proposed to generate low emittance electron bunches from two color laser pulses in a laser-plasma accelerator. A two-region gas structure is used, containing a short re…

Multi-chromatic narrow-energy-spread electron bunches from laser wakefield acceleration with dual-color lasers

Ming Zeng, Min Chen, Lu-Le Yu +5

A method based on laser wakefield acceleration with controlled ionization injection triggered by another frequency-tripled laser is proposed, which can produce electron bunches wit…

Plasma optical modulators for intense lasers

Lu-Le Yu, Yao Zhao, Lie-Jia Qian +6

Optical modulators can be made nowadays with high modulation speed, broad bandwidth, while being compact, owing to the recent advance in material science and microfabrication techn…

A compact tunable polarized X-ray source based on laser-plasma helical undulators

Ji Luo, Min Chen, Ming Zeng +7

Laser wakefield accelerators have great potential as the basis for next generation compact radiation sources because their accelerating gradients are three orders of magnitude larg…
