Above-threshold ionization at laser intensity greater than W/cm

A. Yandow, T. N. Ha, C. Aniculaesei +12

We present the first experimental observation of above-threshold ionization (ATI) electrons produced by ionization of the neon K-shell in a laser field where intensity exceeds 10$^…

Multi-MeV electrons from above-threshold ionization of the neon K-shell

A. Yandow, T. N. Ha, C. Aniculaesei +12

We present measurements of integrated electron energies produced by above-threshold ionization (ATI) of neon in a laser field with intensity exceeding 10 W/cm. We obse…

High-charge 10 GeV electron acceleration in a 10 cm nanoparticle-assisted hybrid wakefield accelerator

Constantin Aniculaesei, Thanh Ha, Samuel Yoffe +23

In an electron wakefield accelerator, an intense laser pulse or charged particle beam excites plasma waves. Under proper conditions, electrons from the background plasma are trappe…

Compact Spectral Characterization of 5-500 MeV X-rays from the Texas Petawatt Laser-Driven Plasma Accelerator

A. Hannasch, L. Lisi, J. Brooks +11

We reconstruct spectra of secondary x-rays generated from a 500 MeV - 2 GeV laser plasma electron accelerator. A compact (7.5 7.5 15 cm), modular x-ray calorimete…

Beam Distortion Effects upon focusing an ultrashort Petawatt Laser Pulse to greater than 10 W/cm

Ganesh Tiwari, Erhard Gaul, Mikael Martinez +15

When an ultrashort laser pulse is tightly focused to a size approaching its central wavelength, the properties of the focused spot diverge from the diffraction limited case. Here w…

High-angle Deflection of the Energetic Electrons by a Voluminous Magnetic Structure in Near-normal Intense Laser-plasma Interactions

J. Peebles, A. V. Arefiev, S. Zhang +14

The physics governing electron acceleration by a relativistically intense laser are not confined to the critical density surface, they also pervade the sub-critical plasma in front…
