Electron Beam Chirp Dexterity in Staging Laser Wakefield Acceleration
N. Pathak, A. Zhidkov, T. Hosokai
Particle energy chirp is shown to be a useful instrument in the staging laser wake field acceleration directed to generation of high-quality dense electron beams. The chirp is a ne…
Characterization of ionization injection in gas mixtures irradiated by sub-petawatt class laser pulses
A. Zhidkov, N. Pathak, J. Koga +3
Effects of ionization injection in low and high Z gas mixtures for the laser wake field acceleration of electrons are analyzed with the use of balance equations and particle-in-cel…
Coupling Effects in Multi-Stage Laser Wake-field Acceleration of Electrons
Zhan Jin, Hirotaka Nakamura, Naveen Pathak +5
Staging laser wake-field acceleration is considered as a necessary technique for developing full-optical jitter-free electron accelerators. Splitting of the acceleration length int…
Effects of hole-boring and relativistic transparency on particle acceleration in overdense plasma irradiated by short multi-PW laser pulses
Masahiro Yano, Alexei Zhidkov, James Koga +2
Propagation of short and ultra-intense laser pulses in a semi-infinite space of overdense hydrogen plasma is analyzed via fully-relativistic, real geometry particle-in-cell (PIC) s…
Probing Space-time Distortion with Laser Wake Field Acceleration and X-ray Free Electron Lasers
Masahiro Yano, Alexei Zhidkov, Ryosuke Kodama
Petawatt class femtosecond lasers and x-ray free electron lasers (XFEL) open up a new page in research fields related to space and vacuum physics. One of fundamental principles can…
Boosted high harmonics pulse from a double-sided relativistic mirror
T. Zh. Esirkepov, S. V. Bulanov, M. Kando +2
An ultra-bright high-intensity X- and gamma-radiation source is proposed. A high-density thin plasma slab, accelerating in the radiation pressure dominant regime by a co-propagatin…
