High brightness, symmetric electron bunch generation in a plasma wakefield accelerator via a radially-polarized plasma photocathode

James Chappell, Emily Archer, Roman Walczak +1

The plasma photocathode has previously been proposed as a source of ultra-high-brightness electron bunches within plasma accelerators. Here, the scheme is extended by using a radia…

Experimental evidence of production of directional muons from a laser-wakefield accelerator

L. Calvin, E. Gerstmayr, C. Arran +19

We report on experimental evidence of the generation of directional muons from a laser-wakefield accelerator driven by a PW-class laser. The muons were generated following the inte…

Resonant excitation of plasma waves in a plasma channel

Aimee J. Ross, James Chappell, Johannes J. van de Wetering +14

We demonstrate resonant excitation of a plasma wave by a train of short laser pulses guided in a pre-formed plasma channel, for parameters relevant to a plasma-modulated plasma acc…
