Effects of Laser Polarization and Color on Hybrid Laser Wakefield and Direct Acceleration
Xi Zhang, V. Khudik, A. C. Bernstein +2
We demonstrate that hybrid laser wakefield and direct acceleration (LWDA) can be significantly improved by using two laser pulses with different polarizations or frequencies. The i…
Time-Resolved Pulse Propagation in Glass in Single-Shot
Yen-Yu Chang, Zhengyan Li, James Welch +3
We report time-resolved pulse self-steepening and temporal splitting in flint glass (SF11) in single-shot using broadband frequency-domain streak camera (B-FDSC). The broadband ($6…
Observation of Plasma Bubble Structures in a GeV Laser-Plasma Accelerator
Yen-Yu Chang, Kathleen Weichman, Xiantao Cheng +8
We measure characteristics of plasma bubbles in GeV-class laser-plasma accelerators (LPAs) using Faraday rotation diagnostics. We extend these techniques, previously demonstrated f…
Bright 5 - 85 MeV Compton gamma-ray pulses from GeV laser-plasma accelerator and plasma mirror
J. M. Shaw, A. C. Bernstein, R. Zgadzaj +19
We convert a GeV laser-plasma electron accelerator into a compact femtosecond-pulsed -ray source by inserting a m-thick glass plate cm after the accelerator exit.…
