Phase front retrieval and correction of Bessel beams
B. Miao, L. Feder, J. E. Shrock +1
Bessel beams generated with non-ideal axicons are affected by aberrations. We introduce a method to retrieve the complex amplitude of a Bessel beam from intensity measurements alon…
Self-waveguiding of relativistic laser pulses in neutral gas channel
L. Feder, B. Miao, J. E. Shrock +2
We demonstrate that an ultrashort high intensity laser pulse can propagate for hundreds of Rayleigh ranges in a prepared neutral hydrogen channel by generating its own plasma waveg…
Meter-Scale, Conditioned Hydrodynamic Optical-Field-Ionized Plasma Channels
A. Picksley, A. Alejo, R. J. Shalloo +9
We demonstrate through experiments and numerical simulations that low-density, low-loss, meter-scale plasma channels can be generated by employing a conditioning laser pulse to ion…
Guiding of high-intensity laser pulses in 100mm-long hydrodynamic optical-field-ionized plasma channels
A. Picksley, A. Alejo, J. Cowley +11
Hydrodynamic optically-field-ionized (HOFI) plasma channels up to 100mm long are investigated. Optical guiding is demonstrated of laser pulses with a peak input intensity of $6\tim…
Optical guiding in meter-scale plasma waveguides
B. Miao, L. Feder, J. E. Shrock +2
We demonstrate a new highly tunable technique for generating meter-scale low density plasma waveguides. Such guides can enable electron acceleration to tens of GeV in a single stag…
