Unforeseen advantage of looser focusing in vacuum laser acceleration
Aitor De Andres, Shikha Bhadoria, Javier Tello Marmolejo +8
Acceleration of electrons in vacuum directly by intense laser fields, often termed vacuum laser acceleration (VLA), holds great promise for the creation of compact sources of high-…
Self-absorption of synchrotron radiation in a laser-irradiated plasma
T. G. Blackburn, A. J. MacLeod, A. Ilderton +3
Electrons at the surface of a plasma that is irradiated by a laser with intensity in excess of are accelerated so strongly that they emit burst…
Physics of the laser-plasma interface in the relativistic regime of interaction
B. Svedung Wettervik, M. Marklund, A. Gonoskov
The reflection of intense laser radiation from solids appears as a result of relativistic dynamics of the electrons driven by both incoming and self-generated electromagnetic field…
Reaching supercritical field strengths with intense lasers
T. G. Blackburn, A. Ilderton, M. Marklund +1
It is conjectured that all perturbative approaches to quantum electrodynamics (QED) break down in the collision of a high-energy electron beam with an intense laser, when the laser…
Prospects and limitations of wakefield acceleration in solids
B. Svedung Wettervik, A. Gonoskov, M. Marklund
Advances in the generation of relativistic intensity pulses with wavelengths in the X-ray regime, through high harmonic generation from near-critical plasmas, opens up the possibil…
Relativistically intense XUV radiation from laser-illuminated near-critical plasmas
T. G. Blackburn, A. A. Gonoskov, M. Marklund
Pulses of extreme ultraviolet (XUV) light, with wavelengths between 10 and 100nm, can be used to image and excite ultra-fast phenomena such as the motion of atomic electrons. H…
