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…
Charge coupling in multi-stage laser wakefield acceleration
N. Pathak, A. Zhidkov, Y. Sakai +2
The multi-stage technique for laser driven acceleration of electrons become a critical part of full-optical, jitter-free accelerators. Use of several independent laser drivers and…
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…
