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…
