Bounding elastic photon-photon scattering at MeV using a laser-plasma platform
R. Watt, B. Kettle, E. Gerstmayr +36
We report on a direct search for elastic photon-photon scattering using x-ray and photons from a laser-plasma based experiment. A gamma photon beam produced by a laser wakefiel…
L-shell X-ray conversion yields for laser-irradiated tin and silver foils
R. L. Singh, S. White, M. Charlwood +10
We have employed the VULCAN laser facility to generate a laser plasma X-ray source for use in photoionisation experiments. A nanosecond laser pulse with an intensity of order ${10}…
Absolute keV X-ray yield and conversion efficiency in over dense Si petawatt laser plasma
Sergey N. Ryazantsev, Artem S. Martynenko, Maksim V. Sedov +15
Laser-produced plasmas are bright, short sources of X-rays often used for time-resolved imaging and spectroscopy. Absolute measurement requires accurate knowledge of laser-to-x-ray…
Observation and modelling of Stimulated Raman Scattering driven by an optically smoothed laser beam in experimental conditions relevant for Shock Ignition
G. Cristoforetti, S. Huller, P. Koester +20
We report results and modelling of an experiment performed at the TAW Vulcan laser facility, aimed at investigating laser-plasma interaction in conditions which are of interest for…
A laser-plasma platform for photon-photon physics
B. Kettle, D. Hollatz, E. Gerstmayr +35
We describe a laser-plasma platform for photon-photon collision experiments to measure fundamental quantum electrodynamic processes such as the linear Breit-Wheeler process with re…
Automation and control of laser wakefield accelerators using Bayesian optimisation
R. J. Shalloo, S. J. D. Dann, J. -N. Gruse +26
Laser wakefield accelerators promise to revolutionise many areas of accelerator science. However, one of the greatest challenges to their widespread adoption is the difficulty in c…
