Electron Injection and Beam Dynamics in a Laser Wakefield Acceleration Driven by Laser Pulses Carrying Orbital Angular Momentum
Q. Qian, M. Li, Y. Ma +21
Laser pulses carrying orbital angular momentum (OAM) provide a new degree of freedom for controlling plasma-based accelerators. Here, we demonstrate experimentally laser wakefield…

Transversely pumped laser driven particle accelerator
Tanner Nutting, Nicholas Ernst, Alexander G. R. Thomas +1
We present a new acceleration scheme capable of accelerating electrons and ions in an underdense plasma. Transversely Pumped Acceleration (TPA) uses multiple arrays of counter-prop…
