Controlling Laser Parameters by Electrical Polarization of Solid State Gain Media
Vladimir Chvykov
The electrical polarization of the laser crystal by external electrical field can change significantly the output laser parameters such as wavelength of excitation and generation,…
Relativistic Magnetic Reconnection in the Laboratory
A. Raymond, C. F. Dong, A. McKelvey +21
Magnetic reconnection is a fundamental plasma process involving an exchange of magnetic energy to plasma kinetic energy through changes in the magnetic field topology. In many astr…
A table-top laser-based source of femtosecond, collimated, ultra-relativistic positron beams
G. Sarri, W. Schumaker, A. Di Piazza +13
The generation of ultra-relativistic positron beams with short duration ( fs), small divergence ( mrad), and high density ($n_{e^+} \simeq 10^{14…
Non-invasive characterization of transverse beam emittance of electrons from a laser-plasma wakefield accelerator in the bubble regime using betatron x-ray radiation
S. Kneip, C. McGuffey, J. L. Martins +17
We propose and use a technique to measure the transverse emittance of a laser-wakefield accelerated beam of relativistic electrons. The technique is based on the simultaneous measu…
X-ray phase contrast imaging of biological specimens with tabletop synchrotron radiation
S. Kneip, C. McGuffey, F. Dollar +13
Since their discovery in 1896, x-rays have had a profound impact on science, medicine and technology. Here we show that the x-rays from a novel tabletop source of bright coherent s…
A Bright Spatially-Coherent Compact X-ray Synchrotron Source
S. Kneip, C. McGuffey, J. L. Martins +19
Each successive generation of x-ray machines has opened up new frontiers in science, such as the first radiographs and the determination of the structure of DNA. State-of-the-art x…
