Longitudinal tapering in meter-scale gas jets for increased efficiency of laser plasma accelerators
R. Li, A. Picksley, C. Benedetti +10
Modern laser plasma accelerators (LPAs) often require plasma waveguides tens of cm long to propagate a high-intensity drive laser pulse. Tapering the longitudinal gas density profi…
Measurement of directional muon beams generated at the Berkeley Lab Laser Accelerator
Davide Terzani, Stanimir Kisyov, Stephen Greenberg +20
We present the detection of directional muon beams produced using a PW laser at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. The muon source is a multi-GeV electron beam generated in…
Matched Guiding and Controlled Injection in Dark-Current-Free, 10-GeV-Class, Channel-Guided Laser Plasma Accelerators
A. Picksley, J. Stackhouse, C. Benedetti +12
We measure the high intensity laser propagation throughout meter-scale, channel-guided LPAs by adjusting the length of the plasma channel on a shot-by-shot basis, showing high qual…
A high-intensity laser-based positron source
S. S. Bulanov, C. Benedetti, D. Terzani +4
Plasma based acceleration is considered a promising concept for the next generation of linear electron-positron colliders. Despite the great progress achieved over last twenty year…
A compact, all-optical positron production and collection scheme
Davide Terzani, Carlo Benedetti, Stepan S. Bulanov +2
In this paper we discuss a compact, laser-plasma-based scheme for the generation of positron beams suitable to be implemented in an all-optical setup. A laser-plasma-accelerated el…
Laser-Plasma Ion Beam Booster Based on Hollow-Channel Magnetic Vortex Acceleration
Marco Garten, Stepan S. Bulanov, Sahel Hakimi +7
Laser-driven ion acceleration provides ultra-short, high-charge, low-emittance beams, which are desirable for a wide range of high-impact applications. Yet after decades of researc…
