Femtosecond x rays from laser-plasma accelerators
S. Corde, K. Ta Phuoc, A. Beck +5
Relativistic interaction of short-pulse lasers with underdense plasmas has recently led to the emergence of a novel generation of femtosecond x-ray sources. Based on radiation from…
All-optical Compton gamma-ray source
K. Ta Phuoc, S. Corde, C. Thaury +6
One of the major goals of research for laser-plasma accelerators is the realization of compact sources of femtosecond X-rays. In particular, using the modest electron energies obta…
Betatron emission as a diagnostic for injection and acceleration mechanisms in laser-plasma accelerators
S. Corde, C. Thaury, K. Ta Phuoc +9
Betatron x-ray emission in laser-plasma accelerators is a promising compact source that may be an alternative to conventional x-ray sources, based on large scale machines. In addit…
Quasi-monoenergetic electron beams production in a sharp density transition
S. Fourmaux, K. Ta Phuoc, P. Lassonde +5
Using a laser plasma accelerator, experiments with a 80 TW and 30 fs laser pulse demonstrated quasi-monoenergetic electron spectra with maximum energy over 0.4 GeV. This is achieve…
Single shot phase contrast imaging using laser-produced Betatron x-ray beams
S. Fourmaux, S. Corde, K. Ta Phuoc +8
Development of x-ray phase contrast imaging applications with a laboratory scale source have been limited by the long exposure time needed to obtain one image. We demonstrate, usin…
Comment on "Scalings for radiation from plasma bubbles" [Phys. Plasmas 17, 056708 (2010)]
S. Corde, A. Stordeur, V. Malka
Thomas has recently derived scaling laws for X-ray radiation from electrons accelerated in plasma bubbles, as well as a threshold for the self-injection of background electrons int…
