Guiding of high-intensity laser pulses in 100mm-long hydrodynamic optical-field-ionized plasma channels
A. Picksley, A. Alejo, J. Cowley +11
Hydrodynamic optically-field-ionized (HOFI) plasma channels up to 100mm long are investigated. Optical guiding is demonstrated of laser pulses with a peak input intensity of $6\tim…
Nonlinear plasma wavelength scalings in a laser wakefield accelerator
H. Ding, A. Döpp, M. Gilljohann +6
Laser wakefield acceleration relies on the excitation of a plasma wave due to the ponderomotive force of an intense laser pulse. However, plasma wave trains in the wake of the lase…
Plasma Wakefield Accelerator Research 2019 - 2040: A community-driven UK roadmap compiled by the Plasma Wakefield Accelerator Steering Committee (PWASC)
Bernhard Hidding, Simon Hooker, Steven Jamison +9
The acceleration gradients generated in a laser- or beam-driven plasma wakefield accelerator are typically three orders of magnitude greater than those produced by a conventional a…
Low-Density Hydrodynamic Optical-Field-Ionized Plasma Channels Generated With An Axicon Lens
R. J. Shalloo, C. Arran, A. Picksley +9
We demonstrate optical guiding of high-intensity laser pulses in long, low density hydrodynamic optical-field-ionized (HOFI) plasma channels. An axicon lens is used to generate HOF…
Excitation and Control of Plasma Wakefields by Multiple Laser Pulses
James Cowley, Christopher Thornton, Christopher Arran +9
We demonstrate experimentally the resonant excitation of plasma waves by trains of laser pulses. We also take an important first step to achieving an energy recovery plasma acceler…
