Enhanced electron injection for efficient proton acceleration and neutron production in femtosecond laser-driven nano-structured targets
Yingzi Dai, Chengyu Qin, Hui Zhang +22
Micro- or nano-structured targets are advantageous in enhancing and manipulating laser-proton acceleration, due to the increased absorption of laser energy and onset of direct lase…
Collimated Hard X-Rays from Hybrid Laser and Plasma Wakefield Accelerators
Hong Zhang, Jianmeng Wei, Mengyuan Chu +21
We report a synergistic enhancement of betatron radiation based on the hybrid laser and plasma wakefield acceleration scheme. Quasi-phase-stable acceleration in an up-ramp plasma d…
Enhanced Proton Acceleration via Petawatt Laguerre-Gaussian Lasers
Wenpeng Wang, Xinyue Sun, Fengyu Sun +13
High-energy, high-flux collimated proton beams with high repetition rates are critical for applications such as proton therapy, proton radiography, high-energy-density matter gener…
Isolated Attosecond -Ray Pulse Generation with Transverse Orbital Angular Momentum Using Intense Spatiotemporal Optical Vortex Lasers
Fengyu Sun, Xinyu Xie, Wenpeng Wang +5
An isolated attosecond vortex -ray pulse is generated by using a relativistic spatiotemporal optical vortex (STOV) laser in particle-in-cell simulations. A 300-attosecond…
Intense harmonics with time-varying orbital angular momentum from relativistic plasma mirrors
Jingwei Wang, Matt Zepf, Yuxin Leng +2
In this work using three-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations and analytical considerations we demonstrate intense high-order plasma surface harmonics carrying a time-varying o…
Enhanced betatron radiation by steering a low-energy-spread electron beam in a deflected laser-driven plasma wiggler
Changhai Yu, Jiansheng Liu, Wentao Wang +14
Laser wakefield accelerators (LWFA) hold great potential to produce high-quality high-energy electron beams (e beams) and simultaneously bright x-ray sources via betatron radiation…
MeV Argon ion beam generation with narrow energy spread
Jiancai Xu, Tongjun Xu, Baifei Shen +11
Laser driven particle acceleration has shown remarkable progresses in generating multi-GeV electron bunches and 10s of MeV ion beams based on high-power laser facilities. Intense l…
