Phase-Matching of High-Order Harmonics Driven by Mid- Infrared Light
Tenio Popmintchev, Ming-Chang Chen, Oren Cohen +4
We demonstrate that phase-matched frequency upconversion of ultrafast laser light can be extended to shorter wavelengths by using longer driving laser wavelengths. Experimentally,…
Multi-GeV electron bunches from an all-optical laser wakefield accelerator
B. Miao, J. E. Shrock, L. Feder +8
We present the first demonstration of multi-GeV laser wakefield acceleration in a fully optically formed plasma waveguide, with an acceleration gradient as high as 25 GeV/m. The gu…
Vacuum laser acceleration of super-ponderomotive electrons using relativistic transparency injection
P. K. Singh, F. -Y. Li, C. -K. Huang +11
Intense lasers can accelerate electrons to very high energy over a short distance. Such compact accelerators have several potential applications including fast ignition, high energ…
Amplification and ellipticity enhancement of sub-femtosecond XUV pulses in IR-field-dressed neon-like active medium of a plasma-based X-ray laser
Vladimir A. Antonov, Ilias R. Khairulin, Mikhail Yu. Ryabikin +4
In [I.R. Khairulin et al., submitted to Phys. Rev. Lett.] we propose a method for amplifying a train of sub-femtosecond pulses of circularly or elliptically polarized extreme ultra…
Amplification of Elliptically Polarized Sub-Femtosecond Pulses in IR-Field-Dressed Neon-Like Active Medium of a Plasma-Based X-ray Laser
Ilias R. Khairulin, Vladimir A. Antonov, Mikhail Yu. Ryabikin +4
We propose a method for amplifying a train of sub-femtosecond pulses of circularly or elliptically polarized extreme ultraviolet (XUV) radiation constituted by high-order harmonics…
Volumetric heating of nanowire arrays to keV temperatures using kilojoule-scale petawatt laser interactions
M. P. Hill, O. Humphries, R. Royle +19
We present picosecond-resolution streaked K-shell spectra from 400 nm-diameter nickel nanowire arrays, demonstrating the ability to generate large volumes of high energy density pl…
Nano-scale ultra-dense Z-pinches formation from laser-irradiated nanowire arrays
Vural Kaymak, Alexander Pukhov, Vyacheslav N. Shlyaptsev +1
We show that ulta-dense Z-pinches with nanoscale dimensions can be generated by irradiating aligned nanowires with femtosecond laser pulses of relativistic intensity. Using fully t…
