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…

Self-truncated ionization injection and consequent monoenergetic electron bunches in laser wakefield acceleration

Ming Zeng, Min Chen, Zheng-Ming Sheng +2

The ionization-induced injection in laser wakefield acceleration has been recently demonstrated to be a promising injection scheme. However, the energy spread controlling in this m…

A robust plasma-based laser amplifier via stimulated Brillouin scattering

Paulo Alves, Raoul Trines, Kathryn Humphrey +6

It is shown here that Brillouin amplification can be used to produce picosecond pulses of petawatt power. Brillouin amplification is far more resilient to fluctuations in the laser…

On the entropy of radiation reaction

David A Burton, Adam Noble

The inexorable development of ever more powerful laser systems has re-ignited interest in electromagnetic radiation reaction and its significance for the collective behaviour of ch…

Micron-Scale Mapping of Megagauss Magnetic Fields in Petawatt Laser-Solid Interactions

Gourab Chatterjee, Prashant Kumar Singh, A. P. L. Robinson +14

We report spatially and temporally resolved measurements of magnetic fields generated by petawatt laser-solid interactions with high spatial resolution, using optical polarimetry.…

Deuterium Balmer/Stark spectroscopy and impurity profiles: first results from mirror-link divertor spectroscopy system on the JET ITER-like wall

A. G. Meigs, S. Brezinsek, M. Clever +6

For the ITER-like wall, the JET mirror link divertor spectroscopy system was redesigned to fully cover the tungsten horizontal strike plate with faster time resolution and improved…

The temporal evolution of the kinetic drift-Alfven instability of plasma shear flow

V. V. Mikhailenko, V. S. Mikhailenko, Hae June Lee +1

The linear non-modal kinetic theory of the kinetic drift-Alfven instability of plasma shear flows reveals the temporal non-modal growth with growing with time growth rate. The turb…

The radiative self-force and charged fluids

D. A. Burton, A. Carr, J. Gratus +1

We develop a new fluid model of a warm plasma that includes the radiative self-force on each plasma electron. Our approach is a natural generalization of established methods for ge…

Enhanced Proton Acceleration by an Ultrashort Laser Interaction with Structured Dynamic Plasma Targets

A. Zigler, S. Eisenman, M. Botton +14

We experimentally demonstrate a notably enhanced acceleration of protons to high energy by relatively modest ultrashort laser pulses and structured dynamical plasma targets. Realiz…
