All-optical density downramp injection in electron-driven plasma wakefield accelerators
D. Ullmann, P. Scherkl, A. Knetsch +16
Injection of well-defined, high-quality electron populations into plasma waves is a key challenge of plasma wakefield accelerators. Here, we report on the first experimental demons…
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…
Downramp-assisted underdense photocathode electron bunch generation in plasma wakefield accelerators
Alexander Knetsch, Oliver Karger, Georg Wittig +12
It is shown that the requirements for high quality electron bunch generation and trapping from an underdense photocathode in plasma wakefield accelerators can be substantially rela…
Tunable Electron Multibunch Production in Plasma Wakefield Accelerators
B. Hidding, O. Karger, G. Wittig +15
Synchronized, independently tunable and focused J-class laser pulses are used to release multiple electron populations via photo-ionization inside an electron-beam driven plasma…
