Mechanisms to control laser-plasma coupling in laser wakefield electron acceleration
L. T. Dickson, C. I. D. Underwood, F. Filippi +16
Experimental results, supported by precise modelling, demonstrate optimisation of a plasma-based injector with intermediate laser pulse energy ( J), corresponding to a normalis…
Absolute keV X-ray yield and conversion efficiency in over dense Si petawatt laser plasma
Sergey N. Ryazantsev, Artem S. Martynenko, Maksim V. Sedov +15
Laser-produced plasmas are bright, short sources of X-rays often used for time-resolved imaging and spectroscopy. Absolute measurement requires accurate knowledge of laser-to-x-ray…
A channel for very high density matter-antimatter pair-jet production by intense laser-pulses
D. Del Sorbo, L. Antonelli, P. J. Davies +6
The mechanism of laser-driven relativistic pair-jet production qualitatively changes as laser intensity exceeds W/cm because of the appearance of las…
Realising Single-Shot Measurements of Quantum Radiation Reaction in High-Intensity Lasers
C. D. Baird, C. D. Murphy, T. G. Blackburn +4
Collisions between high intensity laser pulses and energetic electron beams are now used to measure the transition between the classical and quantum regimes of light-matter interac…
Temporal Feedback Control of High-Intensity Laser Pulses to Optimize Ultrafast Heating of Atomic Clusters
M. J. V. Streeter, S. J. D. Dann, J. D. E. Scott +27
We describe how active feedback routines can be applied at limited repetition rate (5 Hz) to optimize high-power TW) laser interactions with clustered gases. Optimization of…
Experimental signatures of the quantum nature of radiation reaction in the field of an ultra-intense laser
K. Poder, M. Tamburini, G. Sarri +21
The description of the dynamics of an electron in an external electromagnetic field of arbitrary intensity is one of the most fundamental outstanding problems in electrodynamics. R…
