Contribution of ALEGRO to the Update of the European Strategy on Particle Physics
B. Cros, P. Muggli, L. Corner +18
Advanced and novel accelerators (ANAs), driven a by laser pulse or a relativistic particle bunch, have made remarkable progress over the last decades. They accelerated electrons by…
Design Initiative for a 10 TeV pCM Wakefield Collider
Spencer Gessner, Jens Osterhoff, Carl A. Lindstrøm +198
This document outlines a community-driven Design Study for a 10 TeV pCM Wakefield Accelerator Collider. The 2020 ESPP Report emphasized the need for Advanced Accelerator R\&D, and…
Remote detection of radioactive material using a short pulse CO2 laser
A. Zingale, S. Waczynski, I. Pogorelsky +4
Detection of radioactive material at distances greater than the radiated particle range is an important goal with applications in areas such as national defense and disaster respon…
Thermal Weibel instability induced magnetic fields co-exist with linear wakes in laser-ionized plasmas
Yipeng Wu, Audrey Farrell, Mitchell Sinclair +12
When a moderately intense, few-picoseconds long laser pulse ionizes gas to produce an underdense plasma column, a linear relativistic plasma wave or wake can be excited by the self…
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…
High average power ultrafast laser technologies for driving future advanced accelerators
Leily Kiani, Tong Zhou, Seung-Whan Bahk +34
Large scale laser facilities are needed to advance the energy frontier in high energy physics and accelerator physics. Laser plasma accelerators are core to advanced accelerator co…
Mapping the self-generated magnetic fields due to thermal Weibel instability
Chaojie Zhang, Yipeng Wu, Mitchell Sinclair +15
Weibel-type instability can self-generate and amplify magnetic fields in both space and laboratory plasmas with temperature anisotropy. The electron Weibel instability has generall…
Electron Weibel instability induced magnetic fields in optical-field ionized plasmas
Chaojie Zhang, Yipeng Wu, Mitchell Sinclair +14
Generation and amplification of magnetic fields in plasmas is a long-standing topic that is of great interest to both plasma and space physics. The electron Weibel instability is a…
Demonstration of cascaded modulator-chicane micro-bunching of a relativistic electron beam
N. Sudar, P. Musumeci, I. Gadjev +9
We present results of an experiment showing the first successful demonstration of a cascaded micro-bunching scheme. Two modulator-chicane pre-bunchers arranged in series and a high…
Single shot, double differential spectral measurements of inverse Compton scattering in linear and nonlinear regimes
Y. Sakai, I. Gadjev, P. Hoang +18
Inverse Compton scattering (ICS) is a unique mechanism for producing fast pulses - picosecond and below - of bright X- to gamma-rays. These nominally narrow spectral bandwidth elec…
High efficiency energy extraction from a relativistic electron beam in a strongly tapered undulator
Nicholas Sudar, Pietro Musumeci, Joe Duris +8
We present results of an experiment where, using a 200 GW CO2 laser seed, a 65 MeV electron beam was decelerated down to 35 MeV in a 54 cm long strongly tapered helical magnetic un…
Spectral modification of shock accelerated ions using hydrodynamically shaped gas target
O. Tresca, N. P. Dover, N. Cook +5
We report on reproducible shock acceleration from irradiation of a m CO laser on optically shaped H and He gas targets. A low energy laser prepulse ($I\lesssim10…
Optical probing of shocks driven into overdense plasmas by laser hole-boring
N. P. Dover, C. A. J. Palmer, M. Babzien +11
Observations of the interaction of an intense λ0 \approx 10 μm laser pulse with near-critical overdense plasmas (ne = 1.8 - 3 nc) are presented. For the first time, transverse opti…
