Physics-Informed Drift Diagnosis for Laser-Plasma Accelerator Operations
Ou Labun, Calin Hojbota, Mara Klebonas +4
Laser-plasma accelerators (LPAs) sustain accelerating gradients of order , but routine operation remains difficult: electron beam metrics drift over an operatin…
Laser-driven Ion and Neutron Sources from Medium Repetition Ultrashort PW Laser
X. Jiao, C. Jeon, G. Tiwari +9
We report the first experiment investigating ion acceleration and neutron generation irradiating thin plastic targets (CH2) and deuterated plastic targets (CD2) of thickness rangin…
Laser-Wakefield-Driven Photonuclear and Laser-Driven DD Fusion Neutron Sources for Fast Neutron Capture: A Start-to-End Simulation Study
Ou Z. Labun, D. D. Phan, L. Labun +6
Laser-driven neutron sources offer ultrashort pulse durations and extreme peak fluxes inaccessible to conventional facilities, enabling novel time-of-flight(TOF) spectroscopy and n…
Unified Model of Heated Plasma Expansion
Ritwik Sain, Lance Labun, Ou Z. Labun +1
Motivated by the need to predict plasma density and temperature distributions created in the early stages of high-intensity laser-plasma interactions, we develop a fluid model of p…
Performance envelope of laser wakefield accelerators
Lance Labun, Miguel Gracia-Linares, Ou Z. Labun +1
Laser wakefield accelerator experiments have made enormous progress over the past years, but their promise to revolutionize high-energy particle sources is only beginning…
Luminosity for laser-electron colliders
B. Manuel Hegelich, Calin I. Hojbota, Lance A. Labun +2
High intensity laser facilities are expanding their scope from laser and particle-acceleration test beds to user facilities and nuclear physics experiments. A basic goal is to conf…
