Progress in relativistic laser-plasma interaction with kilotesla-level applied magnetic fields
K. Weichman, A. P. L. Robinson, M. Murakami +5
We report on progress in the understanding of the effects of kilotesla-level applied magnetic fields on relativistic laser-plasma interactions. Ongoing advances in magnetic-field-g…

X-ray free-electron lasing in a flying-focus undulator
D. Ramsey, B. Malaca, T. T. Simpson +5
Laser-driven free-electron lasers (LDFELs) replace magnetostatic undulators with the electromagnetic fields of a laser pulse. Because the undulator period is half the wavelength of…

Laser wakefield acceleration of ions with a transverse flying focus
Zheng Gong, Sida Cao, John P. Palastro +1
The extreme electric fields created in high-intensity laser-plasma interactions could generate energetic ions far more compactly than traditional accelerators. Despite this promise…
