Generation of Intense Phase-Stable Femtosecond Hard X-ray Pulse Pairs
Yu Zhang, Thomas Kroll, Clemens Weninger +24
Coherent nonlinear spectroscopies and imaging in the X-ray domain provide direct insight into the coupled motions of electrons and nuclei with resolution on the electronic length a…
MP3 White Paper 2021 -- Research Opportunities Enabled by Co-locating Multi-Petawatt Lasers with Dense Ultra-Relativistic Electron Beams
Sebastian Meuren, David A. Reis, Roger Blandford +11
Novel emergent phenomena are expected to occur under conditions exceeding the QED critical electric field, where the vacuum becomes unstable to electron-positron pair production. T…
An Ultra-Compact X-Ray Free-Electron Laser
J. B. Rosenzweig, N. Majernik, R. R. Robles +33
In the field of beam physics, two frontier topics have taken center stage due to their potential to enable new approaches to discovery in a wide swath of science. These areas are:…
Design and Characteristics of a Population Inversion X-ray Laser Oscillator
A. Halavanau, A. Benediktovitch, A. A. Lutman +5
Oscillators are at the heart of optical lasers, providing stable transform limited pulses. In contrast, X-ray free electron lasers use self-amplified spontaneous emission (SASE), r…
Very high brightness and power LCLS-II hard X-ray pulses
Aliaksei Halavanau, Franz-Josef Decker, Claudio Emma +2
We show the feasibility of generating X-ray pulses in the 4 to 8 keV fundamental photon energy range with 0.65 TW peak power, 15 fs pulse duration, bandwidth, usin…
Superradiant and stimulated-superradiant emission of bunched electron beams
Avraham Gover, Reuven Ianconescu, Aharon Friedman +4
We outline the fundamental coherent radiation emission processes from a bunched charged particles beam. In contrast to spontaneous emission of radiation from a random electron beam…
Bruno Touschek, from Betatrons to Electron-positron Colliders
Carlo Bernardini, Giulia Pancheri, Claudio Pellegrini
Bruno Touschek's life as a physicist spanned the period from World War II to the 1970s. He was a key figure in the developments of electron-positron colliders, storage rings, and g…
High Efficiency, Multi-Terawatt X-ray free electron lasers
Claudio Emma, Kun Fang, Juhao Wu +1
We study high efficiency, multi-terawatt peak power, few angstrom wavelength, X-ray Free Electron Lasers (X-ray FELs). To obtain these characteristics we consider an optimized undu…
Tapering studies for Terawatt level X-ray FELs with a superconducting undulator
Claudio Emma, Juhao Wu, Paul Emma +2
We study the tapering optimization scheme for a short period, less than two cm, superconducting undulator, and show that it can generate 4 keV X-ray pulses with peak power in exces…
Transverse pulse shaping and optimization of a tapered hard X-ray free electron laser
Claudio Emma, Claudio Pellegrini, Juhao Wu
Multidimensional optimization schemes for TW hard X-Ray free electron lasers are applied to the cases of transversely uniform and parabolic electron beam distributions and compared…
