Controlled Injection in a Laser Plasma Accelerator via an Optically Generated Waveguide Constriction

R. J. Shalloo, A. Ferran Pousa, M. Mewes +6

We propose a novel scheme for controlling the injection of a high-quality electron bunch into a channel-guided laser plasma accelerator. This all-optical technique, constricted wav…

Measurement of the decay of laser-driven linear plasma wakefields

J. Jonnerby, A. von Boetticher, J. Holloway +8

We present the first measurements of the temporal decay rate of one-dimensional, linear Langmuir waves excited by an ultra-short laser pulse. Langmuir waves with relative amplitude…

Demonstration of tunability of HOFI waveguides via start-to-end simulations

S. M. Mewes, G. J. Boyle, A. Ferran Pousa +7

In recent years, hydrodynamic optical-field-ionized (HOFI) channels have emerged as a promising technique to create laser waveguides suitable for guiding tightly-focused laser puls…

Mechanisms to control laser-plasma coupling in laser wakefield electron acceleration

L. T. Dickson, C. I. D. Underwood, F. Filippi +16

Experimental results, supported by precise modelling, demonstrate optimisation of a plasma-based injector with intermediate laser pulse energy ( J), corresponding to a normalis…
