Ultra-Short flying-focus
Jérôme Touguet, Igor A. Andriyash, Lucas Rovige +1
Achromatic flying-focus enables programmable control of intensity peak velocity, with applications in ultrafast optics. However, spatiotemporal coupling inherently elongates ultras…
Optical modelling of shaped laser pulses in plasma
Igor A. Andriyash, Cedric Thaury
This work provides a brief review of the numerical methods for modelling the optical propagation of an ultrashort, intense laser pulse in plasmas and ionizable gases. These methods…
Technical Status Report on Plasma Components and Systems in the context of EuPRAXIA
A. Biagioni, N. Bourgeois, F. Brandi +27
The EuPRAXIA project aims to construct two state-of-the-art accelerator facilities based on plasma accelerator technology. Plasma-based accelerators offer the possibility of a sign…
Controlled acceleration of GeV electron beams in an all-optical plasma waveguide
Kosta Oubrerie, Adrien Leblanc, Olena Kononenko +9
Laser-plasma accelerators produce electric fields of the order of 100 GV/m, more than 1000 times larger than radio-frequency accelerators. Thanks to this unique field strength, the…
