Resonantly excited betatron hard X-Rays from Ionization Injected Electron Beam in a Laser Plasma Accelerator
K. Huang, L. M. Chen, Y. F. Li +11
A new scheme for bright hard x-ray emission from laser wakefield electron accelerator is reported, where pure nitrogen gas is adopted. Intense Betatron x-ray beams are generated fr…
Enhanced laser-driven electron beam acceleration due to ionization-induced injection
Song Li, Nasr A. M. Hafz, Mohammed Mirzaie +5
We report an overall enhancement of a laser wakefield acceleration (LWFA) using the ionization injection in a mixture of 0.3 % nitrogen gas in 99.7 % helium gas. Upon the interacti…
Enhanced electron yield from a laser-plasma accelerator using high-Z gas jet targets
Mohammad Mirzaie, Nasr A. M. Hafz, Song Li +5
An investigation of the multi-hundred MeV electron beam yield (charge) form helium, nitrogen, neon and argon gas jet plasmas in a laser-plasma wakefield acceleration experiment was…
Generation of electron beams from a laser-based advanced accelerator at Shanghai Jiao Tong University
Ahmed M. M. Elsied, Nasr A. M. Hafz, Song Li +3
At Shanghai Jiao Tong University, we have established a research laboratory for advanced acceleration research based on high-power lasers and plasma technologies. In a primary expe…
Efficient ion acceleration by collective laser-driven electron dynamics with ultra-thin foil targets
S. Steinke, A. Henig, M. Schnürer +11
Experiments on ion acceleration by irradiation of ultra-thin diamond-like carbon (DLC) foils, with thicknesses well below the skin depth, irradiated with laser pulses of ultra-high…
Radiation Pressure Acceleration of Ion Beams Driven by Circularly Polarized Laser Pulses
A. Henig, S. Steinke, M. Schnürer +11
We present experimental studies on ion acceleration from ultra-thin diamond-like carbon (DLC) foils irradiated by ultra-high contrast laser pulses of energy 0.7 J focussed to peak…
