Optimization of laser-driven proton acceleration in a near-critical-density plasma
Guanqi Qiu, Qianyi Ma, Deji Liu +5
Optimizing laser and plasma parameters is crucial for enhancing accelerated proton energy in laser-driven proton acceleration with finite laser energy for applications such as canc…
Effects of realistic laser intensity and phase distribution on high-charge laser wakefield acceleration
Yuhui Xia, Zhenan Wang, Ziyao Tang +14
Laser wakefield acceleration (LWFA) can produce relativistic electron beams and various secondary particles in centimeter-long plasmas, making it a valuable particle source with im…
Nanometer-scale pre-bunched electron beams generated from all-optical plasma-based acceleration
Zhenan Wang, Zewei Xu, Qianyi Ma +7
High-quality and prebunched electron beams can produce coherent x-rays with high intensity and narrow bandwidth, which is essential for modern light sources. An all-optical scheme…
Generating 10 GW-class isolated zeptosecond x-ray bursts through bootstrapping two plasma-based accelerator stages
Qianyi Ma, Yuhui Xia, Zhenan Wang +8
A method is proposed to generate coherent, intense zeptosecond x-ray pulses by using the electron beam produced by a laser wakefield accelerator (LWFA) stage as the driver for a be…
