Technical Status Report on Plasma Components and Systems in the context of EuPRAXIA
A. Biagioni, N. Bourgeois, F. Brandi +27
The EuPRAXIA project aims to construct two state-of-the-art accelerator facilities based on plasma accelerator technology. Plasma-based accelerators offer the possibility of a sign…
Spatial characterization of debris ejection from the interaction of a tightly focused PW-laser pulse with metal targets
I. -M. Vladisavlevici, C. Vlachos, J. -L. Dubois +22
We present a novel scheme for rapid quantitative analysis of debris generated during experiments with solid targets following relativistic laser-plasma interaction at high-power la…
Currents from relativistic laser-plasma interaction as novel metrology for system stability of high-repetition-rate laser secondary sources
Michael Ehret, Jose Luis Henares, Iuliana-Mariana Vladisavlevici +8
This work shows for the first time experimentally the close relation between return currents from relativistic laser-driven target polarization and the quality of the relativistic…
High-repetition-rate source of nanosecond duration kA-current pulses driven by relativistic laser pulses
Michael Ehret, Jakub Cikhardt, Philip Bradford +10
We report the first high-repetition rate generation and simultaneous characterization of nanosecond-scale return currents of kA-magnitude issued by the polarization of a target irr…
