Femtosecond 240-keV electron pulses from direct laser acceleration in a low-density gas
Vincent Marceau, Charles Varin, Thomas Brabec +1
We propose a simple laser-driven electron acceleration scheme based on tightly focused radially polarized laser pulses for the production of femtosecond electron bunches with energ…

On the validity of the paraxial approximation for electron acceleration with radially polarized laser beams
Vincent Marceau, Charles Varin, Michel Piché
In the study of laser-driven electron acceleration, it has become customary to work within the framework of paraxial wave optics. Using an exact solution to the Helmholtz equation…
