Proton acceleration by a pair of successive ultraintense femtosecond laser pulses
Julien Ferri, Lovisa Senje, Malay Dalui +12
We investigate the target normal sheath acceleration of protons in thin aluminum targets irradiated at relativistic intensity by two time-separated ultrashort (35 fs) laser pulses.…
Laser Wakefield Acceleration Using Wire Produced Double Density Ramps
M. Burza, A. Gonoskov, K. Svensson +7
A novel approach to implement and control electron injection into the accelerating phase of a laser wakefield accelerator (LWFA) is presented. It utilizes a wire, which is introduc…
The self-injection threshold in self-guided laser wakefield accelerators
Stuart P. D. Mangles, Guillaume Genoud, Michael S. Bloom +6
A laser pulse traveling through a plasma can excite large amplitude plasma waves that can be used to accelerate relativistic electron beams in a very short distance---a technique c…
Hollow microspheres as targets for staged laser-driven proton acceleration
M. Burza, A. Gonoskov, G. Genoud +6
A coated hollow core microsphere is introduced as a novel target in ultra-intense laser-matter interaction experiments. In particular, it facilitates staged laser-driven proton acc…
