Direct Acceleration of Ions With Variable-frequency Lasers
F. Peano, J. Vieira, R. A. Fonseca +3
A method is proposed for producing monoergetic, high-quality ion beams in vacuum, via direct acceleration by the electromagnetic field of two counterpropagating, variable-frequency…
One-to-one full scale simulations of laser wakefield acceleration using QuickPIC
J. Vieira, F. Fiuza, R. A. Fonseca +9
We use the quasi-static particle-in-cell code QuickPIC to perform full-scale, one-to-one LWFA numerical experiments, with parameters that closely follow current experimental condit…
Three-dimensional structure of the laser wakefield accelerator in the blowout regime
J. F. Vieira, S. F. Martins, F. Fiuza +9
Three-dimensional Particle-in-Cell (PIC) simulations with the code QuickPIC are used to illustrate the typical accelerating structures associated with the interaction of an intense…
All-optical trapping and acceleration of heavy particles
F. Peano, J. Vieira, L. O. Silva +2
A scheme for fast, compact, and controllable acceleration of heavy particles in vacuum is proposed, in which two counterpropagating lasers with variable frequencies drive a beat-wa…
