Bright dual-pulse betatron X-ray generation from a laser wakefield accelerator
Bo Guo, Yang Wan, Shuang Liu +3
Pump-probe experiments using dual ultrashort X-ray pulses provide unique opportunities for resolving non-equilibrium dynamics initiated by intense X-ray excitation. Betatron radiat…
Field deployment of a laser wakefield accelerator for on-site application
Bo Guo, Xiaonan Ning, Dexiang Liu +7
Successive innovations in particle accelerators have continually expanded the frontiers of scientific discovery. Laser wakefield accelerators promise to transform science, medicine…
Focal-point scanning for dose delivery and optimization with focused laser-accelerated very-high-energy electron beams
Zhiyuan Guo, Yifei Pi, Junwei Zhou +10
Focused very-high-energy electron (VHEE) beams can produce localized dose enhancement at selected depths, but irradiation of a finite target requires coordinated control of multipl…
Absolute charge calibration of DRZ phosphor screens for relativistic electron bunches
Shuang Liu, Bing Zhou, Pengwei Huang +9
Laser-plasma accelerators have been the subject of extensive research in recent years. The electron beams they generate exhibit a broad energy spread. To conveniently characterize…
First direct observation of a wakefield generated with structured light
Aaron Liberman, Anton Golovanov, Slava Smartsev +6
The use of structured light to control the phase velocity of the wake in laser-wakefield accelerators has generated significant interest for its ability to mitigate electron dephas…
