Stable 50 MeV Beams from a 100 Hz Laser-Wakefield Accelerator Driven by an OPCPA Laser
S. Smartsev, J. Wheeler, O. Lundh +12
We demonstrate a laser-wakefield accelerator driven by a high-repetition-rate optical parametric chirped-pulse amplification (OPCPA) laser, producing stable, quasi-monoenergetic el…
Electron Acceleration in a Flying-Focus Laser Wakefield Accelerator
Aaron Liberman, Anton Golovanov, Slava Smartsev +3
Structured light pulses hold significant promise for their ability to overcome dephasing in laser-wakefield accelerators, that should facilitate applications in high-energy physics…
Demonstration of ultra-low emittance beams in a kHz laser wakefield accelerator and application to electron diffraction
J. Monzac, S. Smartsev, J. Huijts +12
We present a compact, cost-effective method for measuring the emittance of kHz-repetition-rate laser-wakefield accelerated electron beams using a permanent solenoid. The measured n…
First Electron Acceleration in a Tunable-Velocity Laser Wakefield
Aaron Liberman, Anton Golovanov, Slava Smartsev +3
We present the first experimental confirmation that a laser-wakefield accelerator produced by a flying focus pulse is able to maintain the coherent structures necessary to accelera…
First direct observation of a wakefield generated with structured light
Aaron Liberman, Anton Golovanov, Slava Smartsev +6
The use of structured light to control the phase velocity of the wake in laser-wakefield accelerators has generated significant interest for its ability to mitigate electron dephas…
