Energy-resolved measurement of individual GeV muon tracks generated by electrons from a compact Laser-Plasma Accelerator
Davide Terzani, Luc Le Pottier, Stanimir Kisyov +17
Recently, the possibility of LPA-produced muon beams has gained significant interest within the accelerator application community. Directional, multi-GeV muons can be produced via…
Measurement of directional muon beams generated at the Berkeley Lab Laser Accelerator
Davide Terzani, Stanimir Kisyov, Stephen Greenberg +20
We present the detection of directional muon beams produced using a PW laser at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. The muon source is a multi-GeV electron beam generated in…
Longitudinal tapering in meter-scale gas jets for increased efficiency of laser plasma accelerators
R. Li, A. Picksley, C. Benedetti +10
Modern laser plasma accelerators (LPAs) often require plasma waveguides tens of cm long to propagate a high-intensity drive laser pulse. Tapering the longitudinal gas density profi…
Design Initiative for a 10 TeV pCM Wakefield Collider
Spencer Gessner, Jens Osterhoff, Carl A. Lindstrøm +198
This document outlines a community-driven Design Study for a 10 TeV pCM Wakefield Accelerator Collider. The 2020 ESPP Report emphasized the need for Advanced Accelerator R\&D, and…
Modeling and Design of Compact, Permanent-Magnet Transport Systems for Highly Divergent, Broad Energy Spread Laser-Driven Proton Beams
J. T. De Chant, K. Nakamura, Q. Ji +8
Laser-driven (LD) ion acceleration has been explored in a newly constructed short focal length beamline at the BELLA petawatt facility (interaction point 2, iP2). For applications…
