Extended X-ray absorption spectroscopy using an ultrashort pulse laboratory-scale laser-plasma accelerator
B. Kettle, C. Colgan, E. Los +21
Laser-driven compact particle accelerators can provide ultrashort pulses of broadband X-rays, well suited for undertaking X-ray absorption spectroscopy measurements on a femtosecon…
Experimental characterisation of a single-shot spectrometer for high-flux, GeV-scale gamma-ray beams
N. Cavanagh, K. Fleck, M. J. V. Streeter +13
We report on the first experimental characterisation of a gamma-ray spectrometer designed to spectrally resolve high-flux photon beams with energies in the GeV range. The spectrome…
Single-pulse Gy-scale irradiation of biological cells at Gy/s average dose-rates from a laser-wakefield accelerator
C. A. McAnespie, P. Chaudhary, M. J. V. Streeter +16
We report on the first experimental characterization of a laser-wakefield accelerator able to deliver, in a single pulse, doses in excess of \unit[1]{Gy} on timescales of the order…
Input to the ESPPU: The LUXE Experiment
H. Abramowicz, M. Almanza Soto, M. Altarelli +130
This document presents an overview of LUXE (Laser Und XFEL Experiment), an experiment that will combine the high-quality and high-energy electron beam of the European XFEL with a h…
Single Particle Detection System for Strong-Field QED Experiments
F. C. Salgado, N. Cavanagh, M. Tamburini +23
Measuring signatures of strong-field quantum electrodynamics (SF-QED) processes in an intense laser field is an experimental challenge: it requires detectors to be highly sensitive…
Technical Design Report for the LUXE Experiment
H. Abramowicz, M. Almanza Soto, M. Altarelli +131
This Technical Design Report presents a detailed description of all aspects of the LUXE (Laser Und XFEL Experiment), an experiment that will combine the high-quality and high-energ…
