Laser Wakefield Acceleration Using Wire Produced Double Density Ramps
M. Burza, A. Gonoskov, K. Svensson +7
A novel approach to implement and control electron injection into the accelerating phase of a laser wakefield accelerator (LWFA) is presented. It utilizes a wire, which is introduc…
The self-injection threshold in self-guided laser wakefield accelerators
Stuart P. D. Mangles, Guillaume Genoud, Michael S. Bloom +6
A laser pulse traveling through a plasma can excite large amplitude plasma waves that can be used to accelerate relativistic electron beams in a very short distance---a technique c…
Hollow microspheres as targets for staged laser-driven proton acceleration
M. Burza, A. Gonoskov, G. Genoud +6
A coated hollow core microsphere is introduced as a novel target in ultra-intense laser-matter interaction experiments. In particular, it facilitates staged laser-driven proton acc…
Observation of Plasma-Undulator Harmonics from a Laser Wakefield Accelerator
G. Genoud, K. Cassou, F. Wojda +11
This paper has been withdrawn by the author. An assumption made in the analysis is not valid under the experimental conditions.
Controlling the spectrum of x-rays generated in a laser-plasma accelerator by tailoring the laser wavefront
S. P. D. Mangles, G. Genoud, S. Kneip +10
By tailoring the wavefront of the laser pulse used in a laser-wakefield accelerator, we show that the properties of the x-rays produced due to the electron beam's betatron oscillat…
