All-optical GeV electron bunch generation in a laser-plasma accelerator via truncated-channel injection
A. Picksley, J. Chappell, E. Archer +10
We describe a simple scheme, truncated-channel injection, to inject electrons directly into the wakefield driven by a drive pulse guided by an all-optical plasma channel. We use th…
Measurement of the decay of laser-driven linear plasma wakefields
J. Jonnerby, A. von Boetticher, J. Holloway +8
We present the first measurements of the temporal decay rate of one-dimensional, linear Langmuir waves excited by an ultra-short laser pulse. Langmuir waves with relative amplitude…
Automated control and optimisation of laser driven ion acceleration
B. Loughran, M. J. V. Streeter, H. Ahmed +32
The interaction of relativistically intense lasers with opaque targets represents a highly non-linear, multi-dimensional parameter space. This limits the utility of sequential 1D s…
Characterisation of Laser Wakefield Acceleration Efficiency with Octave Spanning Near-IR Spectrum Measurements
M. J. V. Streeter, Y. Ma, B. Kettle +25
We report on experimental measurements of energy transfer efficiencies in a GeV-class laser wakefield accelerator. Both the transfer of energy from the laser to the plasma wakefiel…
Study of scintillation light collection, production and propagation in a 4 tonne dual-phase LArTPC
B. Aimard, L. Aizawa, C. Alt +160
The m demonstrator is a dual phase liquid argon time projection chamber that has recorded cosmic rays events in 2017 at CERN. The light signal in these de…
Meter-Scale, Conditioned Hydrodynamic Optical-Field-Ionized Plasma Channels
A. Picksley, A. Alejo, R. J. Shalloo +9
We demonstrate through experiments and numerical simulations that low-density, low-loss, meter-scale plasma channels can be generated by employing a conditioning laser pulse to ion…
