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…
Multi-messenger dynamic imaging of laser-driven shocks in water using a plasma wakefield accelerator
Mario D. Balcazar, Hai-En Tsai, Tobias Ostermayr +27
Understanding dense matter hydrodynamics is critical for predicting plasma behavior in environments relevant to laser-driven inertial confinement fusion. Traditional diagnostic sou…
Modeling and Design of Compact, Permanent-Magnet Transport Systems for Highly Divergent, Broad Energy Spread Laser-Driven Proton Beams
J. T. De Chant, K. Nakamura, Q. Ji +8
Laser-driven (LD) ion acceleration has been explored in a newly constructed short focal length beamline at the BELLA petawatt facility (interaction point 2, iP2). For applications…
Dephasing of ion beams as Magnetic Vortex Acceleration regime transitions into a bubble-like field structure
Sahel Hakimi, Stepan S. Bulanov, Axel Huebl +9
The interaction of an ultra-intense laser pulse with a near critical density target results in the formation of a plasma channel, a strong azimuthal magnetic field and moving vorti…
Strong-Field QED Experiments using the BELLA PW Laser Dual Beamlines
M. Turner, S. S. Bulanov, C. Benedetti +7
The Petawatt (PW) laser facility of the Berkeley Lab Laser Accelerator (BELLA) Center has recently commissioned its second laser pulse transport line. This new beamline can be oper…
Report of Snowmass 21 Accelerator Frontier Topical Group 6 on Advanced Accelerators
C. Geddes, M. Hogan, P. Musumeci +1
The Snowmass 2021 Accelerator Frontier topical group \# 6 on Advanced Accelerator Concepts, covers new R\&D concepts for particle acceleration, generation, and focusing. Based on c…
Effect of Nozzle Curvature on Supersonic Gas Jets Used in Laser-Plasma Acceleration
Ocean Zhou, Hai-En Tsai, Tobias M. Ostermayr +5
Supersonic gas jets produced by converging-diverging (C-D) nozzles are commonly used as targets for laser-plasma acceleration (LPA) experiments. A major point of interest for these…
