Ultrahigh brightness beams from plasma photoguns

A. F. Habib, T. Heinemann, G. G. Manahan +19

Plasma photocathodes open a path towards tunable production of well-defined, compact electron beams with normalized emittance and brightness many orders of magnitude better than st…

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…

Plasma-photonic spatiotemporal synchronization of relativistic electron and laser beams

Paul Scherkl, Alexander Knetsch, Thomas Heinemann +23

Modern particle accelerators and their applications increasingly rely on precisely coordinated interactions of intense charged particle and laser beams. Femtosecond-scale synchroni…

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…
