Electron Injection and Beam Dynamics in a Laser Wakefield Acceleration 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 demonstrate experimentally laser wakefield…

Control of Magnetic Reconnection in High Energy Density Plasmas
J. L. Latham, B. K. Russell, C. Dong +6
Magnetic reconnection governs the explosive release of magnetic energy in systems from the solar corona to fusion plasmas, yet controlling it in the laboratory has remained out of…

Multi-messenger dynamic imaging of laser-driven shocks in water using a plasma wakefield accelerator
Mario D. Balcazar, Hai-En Tsai, Tobias Ostermayr +27
Understanding dense matter hydrodynamics is critical for predicting plasma behavior in environments relevant to laser-driven inertial confinement fusion. Traditional diagnostic sou…
