Analytical Description of Backward Stimulated Raman Scattering Short Pulse Gain factor for Gaussian and Square Pulses
Humberto Figueroa, Mitchell Sinclair, Chan Joshi
This work analytically compares the growth of Backward Stimulated Raman Scattering (B-SRS) induced by temporal laser pulses on the order of a few tens of laser cycles or a couple o…
Thermal Weibel instability induced magnetic fields co-exist with linear wakes in laser-ionized plasmas
Yipeng Wu, Audrey Farrell, Mitchell Sinclair +12
When a moderately intense, few-picoseconds long laser pulse ionizes gas to produce an underdense plasma column, a linear relativistic plasma wave or wake can be excited by the self…
Ultra-compact attosecond X-ray free-electron lasers utilizing unique beams from plasma-based acceleration and an optical undulator
Xinlu Xu, Jiaxin Liu, Thamine Dalichaouch +7
Accelerator-based X-ray free-electron lasers (XFELs) are the latest addition to the revolutionary tools of discovery for the 21st century. The two major components of an XFEL are a…
Capturing relativistic wake eld structures in plasmas using ultrashort high-energy electrons as a probe
C. J. Zhang, J. F. Hua, X. L. Xu +8
A new method capable of capturing coherent electric field structures propagating at nearly the speed of light in plasma with a time resolution as small as a few femtoseconds is pro…
Role of direct laser acceleration in energy gained by electrons in a laser wakefield accelerator with ionization injection
J L Shaw, F S Tsung, N Vafaei-Najafabadi +4
We have investigated the role that the transverse electric field of the laser plays in the acceleration of electrons in a laser wakefield accelerator (LWFA) operating in the quasi-…
