Experimental evidence of production of directional muons from a laser-wakefield accelerator
L. Calvin, E. Gerstmayr, C. Arran +19
We report on experimental evidence of the generation of directional muons from a laser-wakefield accelerator driven by a PW-class laser. The muons were generated following the inte…

Observation of quantum effects on radiation reaction in strong fields
Eva E. Los, Elias Gerstmayr, Christopher Arran +28
Radiation reaction, the force experienced by an accelerated charge due to radiation emission, has long been the subject of extensive theoretical and experimental research. Experime…

Single-pulse Gy-scale irradiation of biological cells at Gy/s average dose-rates from a laser-wakefield accelerator
C. A. McAnespie, P. Chaudhary, M. J. V. Streeter +16
We report on the first experimental characterization of a laser-wakefield accelerator able to deliver, in a single pulse, doses in excess of \unit[1]{Gy} on timescales of the order…
