Relativistic near-single-cycle optics at 1 kHz
Marie Ouillé, Aline Vernier, Frederik Boehle +11
We present a laser source delivering waveform-controlled 1.5-cycle pulses that can be focused to relativistic intensity at 1 kHz repetition rate. These pulses are generated by nonl…

High-charge relativistic electron bunches from a kHz laser-plasma accelerator
Dominykas Gustas, Diego Guénot, Aline Vernier +5
We report on electron wakefield acceleration in the resonant bubble regime with few-millijoule near-single-cycle laser pulses at a kilohertz repetition rate. Using very tight focus…

Relativistic electron beams driven by kHz single-cycle light pulses
D. Guénot, D. Gustas, A. Vernier +8
Laser-plasma acceleration is an emerging technique for accelerating electrons to high energies over very short distances. The accelerated electron bunches have femtosecond duration…
