Combined tools for Particle-In-Cell simulations performed with transversely asymmetric chirped lasers
I. Moulanier, F. Massimo, T. L. Steyn +1
We introduce the Asymmetric Chirped Electric field reconstruction (ACE) toolbox, a suite of algorithms enabling the reconstruction of a laser transverse distribution coupled to a c…
Plasma dechirper and lens for electron beams from laser wakefield acceleration in a tailored density profile
T. L. Steyn, A. Panchal, O. Vasilovici +16
Achieving high-quality electron beams from laser wakefield accelerators critically relies on density tailoring to control electron dynamics during injection, acceleration, and extr…
Observation of laser plasma accelerated electrons with transverse momentum spread below the thermal level
T. L. Steyn, A. Panchal, O. Vasilovici +14
Achieving high-quality electron beams from laser-plasma accelerators critically relies on density tailoring to control electron dynamics during injection, acceleration, and extract…
Fast laser field reconstruction method based on a Gerchberg-Saxton algorithm with mode decomposition
Ioaquin Moulanier, Lewis Thomas Dickson, Francesco Massimo +1
Knowledge of the electric field of femtosecond, high intensity laser pulses is of paramount importance to study the interaction of this class of lasers with matter. A novel, hybrid…
Modeling of the driver transverse profile for laser wakefield electron acceleration at APOLLON Research Facility
Ioaquin Moulanier, Lewis Dickson, Charles Ballage +11
The quality of electron bunches accelerated by laser wakefields is highly dependant on the temporal and spatial features of the laser driver. Analysis of experiments performed at A…
Experimental characterisation of a single-shot spectrometer for high-flux, GeV-scale gamma-ray beams
N. Cavanagh, K. Fleck, M. J. V. Streeter +13
We report on the first experimental characterisation of a gamma-ray spectrometer designed to spectrally resolve high-flux photon beams with energies in the GeV range. The spectrome…
Mechanisms to control laser-plasma coupling in laser wakefield electron acceleration
L. T. Dickson, C. I. D. Underwood, F. Filippi +16
Experimental results, supported by precise modelling, demonstrate optimisation of a plasma-based injector with intermediate laser pulse energy ( J), corresponding to a normalis…
