Spatial profile of accelerated electrons from ponderomotive scattering in hydrogen cluster targets
B. Aurand, L. Reichwein, K. M. Schwind +10
We study the laser-driven acceleration of electrons from overdense hydrogen clusters to energies of up to 13 MeV in laser forward direction and several hundreds of keV in an outer…
Positron acceleration via laser-augmented blowouts in two-column plasma structures
Lars Reichwein, Anton Golovanov, Igor Yu. Kostyukov +1
We propose a setup for positron acceleration consisting of an electron driver and a laser pulse creating a two-fold plasma column structure. The resulting wakefield is capable of a…
Optimized laser-assisted electron injection into a quasi-linear plasma wakefield
V. Khudiakov, A. Pukhov
We present a novel electron injection scheme for plasma wakefield acceleration. The method is based on recently proposed technique of fast electron generation via laser-solid inter…
Simulation and Experimental Study of Proton Bunch Self-Modulation in Plasma with Linear Density Gradients
P. I. Morales Guzmán, P. Muggli, R. Agnello +88
We present numerical simulations and experimental results of the self-modulation of a long proton bunch in a plasma with linear density gradients along the beam path. Simulation re…
Efficient narrowband teraherz radiation from electrostatic wakefields in non-uniform plasmas
Alexander Pukhov, Anton Golovanov, Igor Kostyukov
Abstract It is shown that electrostatic plasma wakefields can efficiently radiate at harmonics of the plasma frequency when the plasma has a positive density gradient along the pro…
Bright betatron radiation from direct-laser-accelerated electrons at moderate relativistic laser intensity
O. N. Rosmej, X. F. Shen, A. Pukhov +8
Direct laser acceleration (DLA) of electrons in a plasma of near critical electron density (NCD) and associated synchrotron-like radiation are discussed for moderate relativistic l…
