Measurement of the decay of laser-driven linear plasma wakefields

J. Jonnerby, A. von Boetticher, J. Holloway +8

We present the first measurements of the temporal decay rate of one-dimensional, linear Langmuir waves excited by an ultra-short laser pulse. Langmuir waves with relative amplitude…

Meter-Scale, Conditioned Hydrodynamic Optical-Field-Ionized Plasma Channels

A. Picksley, A. Alejo, R. J. Shalloo +9

We demonstrate through experiments and numerical simulations that low-density, low-loss, meter-scale plasma channels can be generated by employing a conditioning laser pulse to ion…

Automation and control of laser wakefield accelerators using Bayesian optimisation

R. J. Shalloo, S. J. D. Dann, J. -N. Gruse +26

Laser wakefield accelerators promise to revolutionise many areas of accelerator science. However, one of the greatest challenges to their widespread adoption is the difficulty in c…

Low-Density Hydrodynamic Optical-Field-Ionized Plasma Channels Generated With An Axicon Lens

R. J. Shalloo, C. Arran, A. Picksley +9

We demonstrate optical guiding of high-intensity laser pulses in long, low density hydrodynamic optical-field-ionized (HOFI) plasma channels. An axicon lens is used to generate HOF…

Temporal Feedback Control of High-Intensity Laser Pulses to Optimize Ultrafast Heating of Atomic Clusters

M. J. V. Streeter, S. J. D. Dann, J. D. E. Scott +27

We describe how active feedback routines can be applied at limited repetition rate (5 Hz) to optimize high-power TW) laser interactions with clustered gases. Optimization of…
