Efficient Acceleration of High-Quality GeV-Electron Bunches in a Hybrid Laser- and Beam-Driven Plasma Wakefield Accelerator

F. M. Foerster, M. Ayache, Z. Bi +24

Plasma-based accelerators are compact and provide high gradients, yet their practical use has been limited by energy gain, stability, beam quality, and energy transfer efficiency.…

Plasma Lenses for Relativistic Laser Beams in Laser Wakefield Accelerators

Ming Zeng, Alberto Martinez de la Ossa, Kristjan Poder +1

Focusing petawatt-level laser beams to a variety of spot sizes for different applications is expensive in cost, labor and space. In this paper, we propose a plasma lens to flexibly…
