Electron Dynamics in a Wakefield Accelerator Driven by Laser Pulses Carrying Orbital Angular Momentum

Q. Qian, M. Li, Y. Ma +21

Laser pulses carrying orbital angular momentum (OAM) provide a new degree of freedom for controlling plasma-based accelerators. Here, we experimentally demonstrate OAM-driven laser…

Limitations of post accelerating ion beams using the snowplow field in a near-critical density target

Davide Terzani, Stepan S. Bulanov, Lieselotte Obst-Huebl +11

Laser-matter interaction at relativistic intensities is central to almost every scientific case for multi-PW laser facilities. In particular, the progress in laser-driven ion accel…

Ion-motion-driven enhancement of energy coupling and stability in relativistic laser-microchannel interaction

K. Weichman, M. VanDusen-Gross, G. Bruhaug +5

For sufficiently short relativistic-intensity laser pulses, the disparity in time scales for electron and ion motion causes ions to behave as a fixed, neutralizing background. As t…

Photon Phase-Space Dynamics in a Plasma Wakefield Accelerator

Neil Beri, John Palastro, Qian Qian +3

Frequency up-shifting of laser light in a beam-driven plasma wakefield has the potential to provide high-intensity sources of short wavelength radiation. Simulations have demonstra…

Testing strong-field QED with the avalanche precursor

A. A. Mironov, S. S. Bulanov, A. Di Piazza +8

A two-beam high-power laser facility is essential for the study of one of the most captivating phenomena predicted by strong-field quantum electrodynamics (QED) and yet unobserved…
