Low divergence proton beams from a laser-plasma accelerator at kHz repetition rate
Dan Levy, Igor A. Andriyash, Stefan Haessler +6
Proton beams with up to 100 pC bunch charge, 0.48 MeV cut-off energy and divergence as low as a were generated from solid targets at kHz repetition rate by a few-mJ fem…
Energy-chirp compensation in laser wakefield accelerators
A. Döpp, C. Thaury, E. Guillaume +7
The energy spread in laser-wakefield accelerators is primarily limited by the energy-chirp introduced during the injection and acceleration processes. Here we propose and demonstra…
Plasma Wake Accelerators: Introduction and Historical Overview
V. Malka
Fundamental questions on the nature of matter and energy have found answers thanks to the use of particle accelerators. Societal applications, such as cancer treatment or cancer im…
A bremsstrahlung gamma-ray source based on stable ionization injection of electrons into a laser wakefield accelerator
A. Döpp, E. Guillaume, C. Thaury +11
Laser wakefield acceleration permits the generation of ultra-short, high-brightness relativistic electron beams on a millimeter scale. While those features are of interest for many…
Energy boost in laser wakefield accelerators using sharp density transitions
A. Döpp, E. Guillaume, C. Thaury +3
The energy gain in laser wakefield accelerators is limited by dephasing between the driving laser pulse and the highly relativistic electrons in its wake. Since this phase depends…
