Extending the Pulsar radio population through Quantum Vacuum Cherenkov Emission
Tales A. O. Gomes, Sergei V. Bulanov, Jaziel G. Coelho +3
The presence of some radio pulsars within and below the so-called ``death valley'' in the -- diagram challenges the standard pair-cascade models based on curvature radi…
Photon Acceleration in Magnetized Plasma: A Mechanism for Fast Radio Bursts
Sergei V. Bulanov, Gabriele Maria Grittani, Marcel Lamac +7
We propose a mechanism for fast radio bursts based on photon acceleration by relativistic shocks propagating through highly magnetized electron--positron plasmas, as expected in ma…
Energy-optimized scaling laws for self-guided laser wakefield accelerators
Petr Valenta, Marcel Lamač, Kyle G. Miller +4
Laser wakefield acceleration promises compact electron accelerators for applications in medicine, industry, and fundamental science. Yet, despite rapid progress, accurately predict…
Pair-loaded electron-only magnetic reconnection using laser-driven capacitor coils
Brandon K. Russell, Qian Qian, Rebecca Fitzgarrald +12
We propose and simulate a laboratory platform to study the effects of positrons in magnetic reconnection using laser-driven capacitor coils. Using particle-in-cell simulations, we…
Controlled kHz laser-driven electron irradiations for pre-clinical applications
C. M. Lazzarini, M. Favetta, E. R. Szabo +20
We report the first in-air irradiations of biological samples with kHz laser-driven electrons with beam energy 20 MeV, high-energy tail extending to 40 MeV, and average dose rate u…
Photon Accelerator in Magnetized Electron-Ion Plasma
Sergei Bulanov, Stepan Bulanov, Timur Esirkepov +6
Strong magnetic fields and plasmas are intrinsically linked in both terrestrial laboratory experiments and in space phenomena. One of the most profound consequences of that is the…
Optimized matching conditions for self-guided laser wakefield accelerators
P. Valenta, K. G. Miller, B. K. Russell +4
We revisit the matching conditions for self-guided laser pulse propagation in plasma and refine their formulation to maximize the energy of electrons produced via laser wakefield a…
High-Energy Photon Generation from Self-Organized Plasma Cavities in Field-Enhanced Laser-Preplasma Interactions
Prokopis Hadjisolomou, Rashid Shaisultanon, Tae Moon Jeong +2
The interaction of an ultraintense Nd:glass laser pulse with a near-critical plasma self-organizes into a highly efficient -ray source. Three-dimensional particle-in-cell simula…

Alžběta Špádová, Petr Valenta, Sebastian Lorenz +4
This study explores nanoparticle-assisted electron injection as a method for controlling beam charge in laser wakefield acceleration through particle-in-cell simulations. We system…
Generation of High Order Harmonics in Vacuum for Various Configurations of Interacting Electromagnetic Field
Pavel Sasorov, Sergei Bulanov
High order harmonic (HOH) generation by interacting extremely intense electromagnetic waves in the quantum vacuum is investigated within the framework of the Heisenberg-Euler forma…
Visualization of high-intensity laser-matter interactions in virtual reality and web browser
Martin Matys, James P. Thistlewood, Mariana Kecová +7
We present the Virtual Beamline (VBL) application, an interactive web-based platform for visualizing high-intensity laser-matter interactions using particle-in-cell (PIC) simulatio…
Collimated -flash emission along the target surface irradiated by a laser at non-grazing incidence
M. Matys, P. Hadjisolomou, R. Shaisultanov +7
The interaction of a high-power laser with a solid target provides ways to produce beams of -photons. For normal incidence of the laser on the target the beams usually appear in…

P. Hadjisolomou, T. M. Jeong, P. Valenta +4
The interaction of an ultra-intense laser with matter is an efficient source of high-energy particles, with efforts directed towards narrowing the divergence and simultaneously inc…
Bright coherent attosecond X-ray pulses from beam-driven relativistic mirrors
Marcel Lamač, Petr Valenta, Jaroslav Nejdl +3
Bright ultrashort X-ray pulses allow scientists to observe ultrafast motion of atoms and molecules. Coherent light sources, such as the X-ray free electron laser (XFEL), enable rem…
Strong-field vacuum polarisation with high energy lasers
A. J. Macleod, J. P. Edwards, T. Heinzl +2
When photons propagate in vacuum they may fluctuate into matter pairs thus allowing the vacuum to be polarised. This linear effect leads to charge screening and renormalisation. Wh…
