Ambient air plasma acceleration in tightly-focused ultrashort infrared laser beams
Marianna Lytova, François Fillion-Gourdeau, Simon Vallières +3
Recent experimental and theoretical results have demonstrated the possibility of accelerating electrons in the MeV range by focusing tightly a few-cycle laser beam in ambient air.…
