Collider-quality electron bunches from an all-optical plasma photoinjector

Arohi Jain, Jiayang Yan, Jacob R. Pierce +11

We present a novel approach for generating collider-quality electron bunches using a plasma photoinjector. The approach leverages recently developed techniques for the spatiotempor…

X-ray free-electron lasing in a flying-focus undulator

D. Ramsey, B. Malaca, T. T. Simpson +5

Laser-driven free-electron lasers (LDFELs) replace magnetostatic undulators with the electromagnetic fields of a laser pulse. Because the undulator period is half the wavelength of…

Dephasingless two-color terahertz generation

Tanner T. Simpson, Jeremy J. Pigeon, Kyle G. Miller +3

A laser pulse composed of a fundamental and an appropriately phased second harmonic can drive a time-dependent current of photoionized electrons that generates broadband THz radiat…

Programmable and arbitrary-trajectory ultrafast flying focus pulses

M. V. Ambat, J. L. Shaw, J. J. Pigeon +4

"Flying focus" techniques produce laser pulses with dynamic focal points that travels distances much greater than a Rayleigh length. The implementation of these techniques in laser…

Spatiotemporal control of two-color terahertz generation

Tanner T. Simpson, Jeremy J. Pigeon, Manfred Virgil Ambat +5

A laser pulse composed of a fundamental and properly phased second harmonic exhibits an asymmetric electric field that can drive a time-dependent current of photoionized electrons.…

Exact solutions for the electromagnetic fields of a flying focus

D. Ramsey, A. Di Piazza, M. Formanek +10

The intensity peak of a "flying focus" travels at a programmable velocity over many Rayleigh ranges while maintaining a near-constant profile. Assessing the extent to which these f…
