Single-Shot High-Energy Muon and Particle Radiography with a Multi-GeV Laser-Wakefield-Accelerator-Driven Source
Kaixin Zhu, G. Jackson Williams, Roberto Versaci +29
We report the first demonstration of single-shot particle radiography using a 1-10 GeV laser-wakefield-generated beam of muons, pions, and neutrons. The test objects were imaged ~1…
Plasma waveguides for high-intensity laser pulses
J. E. Shrock, B. Miao, E. Rockafellow +1
Fundamental to many applications of laser pulses in science and technology is an extended interaction length with matter that significantly exceeds the distance over which the puls…
Excitation of Giant Surface Waves During Laser Wake Field Acceleration
Travis Garrett, Christopher Pieronek, E. Rockafellow +7
We have detected the presence of very high intensity surface waves that are excited during plasma waveguided laser wakefield acceleration. Wakefield acceleration can be enchanced b…
Longitudinal shaping of plasma waveguides using diffractive axicons for laser wakefield acceleration
N. Tripathi, B. Miao, A. Sloss +4
New techniques for the optical generation of plasma waveguides -- optical fibres for ultra-intense light pulses -- have become vital to the advancement of multi-GeV laser wakefield…
Self-waveguiding of relativistic laser pulses in neutral gas channel
L. Feder, B. Miao, J. E. Shrock +2
We demonstrate that an ultrashort high intensity laser pulse can propagate for hundreds of Rayleigh ranges in a prepared neutral hydrogen channel by generating its own plasma waveg…
Magnetothermodynamics: Measurements of the thermodynamic properties in a relaxed magnetohydrodynamic plasma
M. Kaur, L. J. Barbano, E. M. Suen-Lewis +6
We have explored the thermodynamics of compressed magnetized plasmas in laboratory experiments and we call these studies "magnetothermodynamics". The experiments are carried out in…
Magnetothermodynamics: Measuring equations of state in a relaxed magnetohydrodynamic plasma
M. Kaur, L. J. Barbano, E. M. Suen-Lewis +4
We report the first measurements of equations of state of a fully relaxed magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) laboratory plasma. Parcels of magnetized plasma, called Taylor states, are forme…
