Single-Shot High-Energy Muon and Particle Radiography with a Multi-GeV Laser-Wakefield-Accelerator-Driven Source
Kaixin Zhu, G. Jackson Williams, Roberto Versaci +29
We report the first demonstration of single-shot particle radiography using a 1-10 GeV laser-wakefield-generated beam of muons, pions, and neutrons. The test objects were imaged ~1…

Bayesian Optimization of Laser-Wakefield Acceleration via Spectral Pulse Shaping
B. Z. Djordjević, C. Benedetti, A. D. McNaughton +7
In this paper, we investigate the effect of spectral pulse shaping of the laser driver on the performance of channel-guided, laser-plasma accelerators. The study was carried out wi…

Towards the Optimisation of Direct Laser Acceleration
A. E. Hussein, A. V. Arefiev, T. Batson +13
Experimental measurements using the OMEGA EP laser facility demonstrated direct laser acceleration (DLA) of electron beams to (505 75) MeV with (140 30)~nC of charge fr…
