Self-modulated laser wakefield accelerators as x-ray sources
N. Lemos, J. L. Martins, F. S. Tsung +5
The development of a directional, small-divergence, and short-duration picosecond x-ray probe beam with an energy greater than 50 keV is desirable for high energy density science e…
Estimation of direct laser acceleration in laser wakefield accelerators using particle-in-cell simulations
J. L. Shaw, N. Lemos, K. A. Marsh +3
Many current laser wakefield acceleration (LWFA) experiments are carried out in a regime where the laser pulse length is on the order of or longer than the wake wavelength and wher…
Sub-femtosecond electron bunches created by direct laser acceleration in a laser wakefield accelerator with ionization injection
N. Lemos, J. L. Shaw, K. A. Marsh +1
In this work, we will show through three-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations that direct laser acceleration in laser a wakefield accelerator can generate sub-femtosecond elect…
Satisfying the Direct Laser Acceleration Resonance Condition in a Laser Wakefield Accelerator
J. L. Shaw, N. Vafaei-Najafabadi, K. A. Marsh +4
In this proceeding, we show that when the drive laser pulse overlaps the trapped electrons in a laser wakefield accelerator (LWFA), those electrons can gain energy from direct lase…
