Effect of Nozzle Curvature on Supersonic Gas Jets Used in Laser-Plasma Acceleration
Ocean Zhou, Hai-En Tsai, Tobias M. Ostermayr +5
Supersonic gas jets produced by converging-diverging (C-D) nozzles are commonly used as targets for laser-plasma acceleration (LPA) experiments. A major point of interest for these…
Radial Density Profile and Stability of Capillary Discharge Plasma Waveguides of Lengths up to 40 Centimeters
M. Turner, A. J. Gonsalves, S. S. Bulvanov +10
We measured the parameter reproducibility and radial electron density profile of capillary discharge waveguides with diameters of 650 um to 2 mm and lengths of 9 to 40 cm. To our k…
Multiple-colliding laser pulses as a basis for studying high-field high-energy physics
J. Magnusson, A. Gonoskov, M. Marklund +10
Apart from maximizing the strength of optical electromagnetic fields achievable at high-intensity laser facilities, the collision of several phase-matched laser pulses has been the…
Ion Acceleration in Laser Generated Mega Tesla Magnetic Vortex
Jaehong Park, Stepan S. Bulanov, Jianhui Bin +8
Magnetic Vortex Acceleration (MVA) from near critical density targets is one of the promising schemes of laser-driven ion acceleration. 3D particle-in-cell simulations are used to…
Saturation of the hosing instability in quasi-linear plasma accelerators
Remi Lehe, Carl B. Schroeder, Jean-Luc Vay +2
The beam hosing instability is analyzed theoretically for a witness beam in the quasi-linear regime of plasma accelerators. In this regime, the hosing instability saturates, even f…
On production and asymmetric focusing of flat electron beams using rectangular capillary discharge plasmas
G. A. Bagdasarov, N. A. Bobrova, A. S. Boldarev +15
A method for the asymmetric focusing of electron bunches, based on the active plasma lensing technique is proposed. This method takes advantage of the strong inhomogeneous magnetic…
