Stable Positron Acceleration in Thin, Warm, Hollow Plasma Channels
T. Silva, L. D. Amorim, M. C. Downer +4
Hollow plasma channels are attractive for lepton acceleration because they provide intrinsic emittance preservation regimes. However, beam breakup instabilities dominate the dynami…
Nonlinear Inverse Compton Scattering from a Laser Wakefield Accelerator and Plasma Mirror
A. Hannasch, M. LaBerge, R. Zgadzaj +7
We generate inverse Compton scattered X-rays in both linear and nonlinear regimes with a 250 MeV laser wakefield electron accelerator and plasma mirror by retro-reflecting the unus…
Compact Spectral Characterization of 5-500 MeV X-rays from the Texas Petawatt Laser-Driven Plasma Accelerator
A. Hannasch, L. Lisi, J. Brooks +11
We reconstruct spectra of secondary x-rays generated from a 500 MeV - 2 GeV laser plasma electron accelerator. A compact (7.5 7.5 15 cm), modular x-ray calorimete…
Compact Spectroscopy of keV to MeV X-rays from a Laser Wakefield Accelerator
A. Hannasch, A. Laso Garcia, M. LaBerge +12
We reconstruct spectra of secondary X-rays from a tunable 250-350 MeV laser wakefield electron accelerator from single-shot X-ray depth-energy measurements in a compact (7.5 $\time…
Dissipation of electron-beam-driven plasma wakes
Rafal Zgadzaj, Zhengyan Li, M. C. Downer +10
Metre-scale plasma wakefield accelerators have imparted energy gain approaching 10 gigaelectronvolts to single nano-Coulomb electron bunches. To reach useful average currents, howe…
Electron bunch generation from a plasma photocathode
Aihua Deng, Oliver Karger, Thomas Heinemann +25
Plasma waves generated in the wake of intense, relativistic laser or particle beams can accelerate electron bunches to giga-electronvolt (GeV) energies in centimetre-scale distance…
