Single-Shot High-Energy Muon and Particle Radiography with a Multi-GeV Laser-Wakefield-Accelerator-Driven Source

Kaixin Zhu, G. Jackson Williams, Roberto Versaci +29

We report the first demonstration of single-shot particle radiography using a 1-10 GeV laser-wakefield-generated beam of muons, pions, and neutrons. The test objects were imaged ~1…

High-repetition-rate, all-reflective optical guiding and electron acceleration in helium using an off-axis axicon

Jiří Šišma, Michal Nevrkla, Filip Vitha +17

We present recent results on high-power guiding and laser wakefield acceleration in the ELectron Beam Accelerator (ELBA) beamline at ELI Beamlines, using the L3-HAPLS laser system…

Longitudinal shaping of plasma waveguides using diffractive axicons for laser wakefield acceleration

N. Tripathi, B. Miao, A. Sloss +4

New techniques for the optical generation of plasma waveguides -- optical fibres for ultra-intense light pulses -- have become vital to the advancement of multi-GeV laser wakefield…

Transverse orbital angular momentum: setting the record straight

N. Tripathi, S. W. Hancock, H. M. Milchberg

The nature of the transverse orbital angular momentum (tOAM) associated with spatiotemporal optical vortex (STOV) pulses has been the subject of recent debate. We demonstrate that…

Transverse orbital angular momentum of amplitude-perturbed fields

S. W. Hancock, N. Tripathi, M. S. Le +2

We measure the change in transverse orbital angular momentum (tOAM) per photon, delta L_y, applied to an optical pulse by a pure amplitude perturbation. The results are in excellen…

Benchmarking of hydrodynamic plasma waveguides for multi-GeV laser-driven electron acceleration

B. Miao, E. Rockafellow, J. E. Shrock +3

Hydrodynamic plasma waveguides initiated by optical field ionization (OFI) have recently become a key component of multi-GeV laser wakefield accelerators. Here, we present the most…
