Controlling fast electron beam divergence using two laser pulses

R. H. H. Scott, C. Beaucourt, H. -P. Schlenvoigt +21

This paper describes the first experimental demonstration of the guiding of a relativistic electron beam in a solid target using two co-linear, relativistically intense, picosecond…

Momentum-dependent snapshots of a melting charge density wave

Jesse C. Petersen, Stefan Kaiser, Nicky Dean +11

Charge density waves (CDWs) underpin the electronic properties of many complex materials. Near-equilibrium CDW order is linearly coupled to a periodic, atomic-structural distortion…

Observation of a Long-Wavelength Hosing Modulation of a High-Intensity Laser Pulse in Underdense Plasma

M. C. Kaluza, S. P. D. Mangles, A. G. R. Thomas +10

We report the first experimental observation of a long-wavelength hosing modulation of a high-intensity laser pulse. Side-view images of the scattered optical radiation at the fund…

X-ray harmonic comb from relativistic electron spikes

Alexander S. Pirozhkov, Masaki Kando, Timur Zh. Esirkepov +24

X-ray devices are far superior to optical ones for providing nanometre spatial and attosecond temporal resolutions. Such resolution is indispensable in biology, medicine, physics,…

Atomic excitation during recollision-free ultrafast multi-electron tunnel ionization

W. A. Bryan, S. L. Stebbings, J. McKenna +12

Modern intense ultrafast pulsed lasers generate an electric field of sufficient strength to permit tunnel ionization of the valence electrons in atoms. This process is usually trea…

Micron-scale Fast Electron Filamentation and Recirculation determined from Rear Side Optical Emission in High Intensity Laser-Solid Interactions

C. Bellei, S. R. Nagel, S. Kar +24

The transport of relativistic electrons generated in the interaction of petawatt class lasers with solid targets has been studied through measurements of the optical emission from…
