Mitigation of the Microbunching Instability Through Transverse Landau Damping
A. D. Brynes, G. Perosa, C. -Y. Tsai +14
The microbunching instability has been a long-standing issue for high-brightness free-electron lasers (FELs), and is a significant show-stopper to achieving full longitudinal coher…
Status report of the ESCULAP project at Orsay: External injection of low energy electrons in a Plasma
Elsa Baynard, Christelle Bruni, Kevin Cassou +20
The ESCULAP project aims at studying external injection of low energy (\SI{10}{MeV}) electrons in a plasma in the quasilinear regime. This facility will use the photo injector PHIL…
Extensive study of electron acceleration by relativistic surface plasmons
Giada Cantono, Andrea Sgattoni, Luca Fedeli +5
The excitation of surface plasmons with ultra-intense ( W/cm), high contrast () laser pulses on periodically-modulated solid targets has be…
Modelling of laser-plasma acceleration of relativistic electrons in the frame of ESCULAP project
E. Baynard, C. Bruni, K. Cassou +19
We present numerical simulations results on the injection and acceleration of a 10 MeV, 10 pC electrons beam in a plasma wave generated in a gas cell by a 2J, 45 fs laser beam. Thi…
Longitudinal compression and transverse matching of electron bunch for external injection LPWA at ESCULAP
K. Wang, E. Baynard, C. Bruni +19
We present theoretical and numerical studies of longitudinal compression and transverse matching of electron bunch before injecting into the Laser-plasma Wake Field Accelerator (LW…
Electron acceleration by relativistic surface plasmons in laser-grating interaction
Luca Fedeli, Andrea Sgattoni, Giada Cantono +9
The generation of energetic electron bunches by the interaction of a short, ultra-intense () laser pulse with "grating" targets has been investigated in…
Spectral-phase interferometry for direct electric-field reconstruction applied to seeded extreme-ultraviolet free-electron lasers
Benoît Mahieu, David Gauthier, Giovanni De Ninno +6
We present a setup for complete characterization of femtosecond pulses generated by seeded free-electron lasers (FEL's) in the extreme-ultraviolet spectral region. Two delayed and…
Fully-tunable femtosecond laser source in the ultraviolet spectral range
B. Mahieu, S. Coraggia, C. Callegari +10
We demonstrate experimentally the full tunability of a coherent femtosecond source in the whole ultraviolet spectral region. The experiment relies on the technique of high-order ha…
Chaos in free electron laser oscillators
C. Bruni, R. Bachelard, D. Garzella +2
The chaotic nature of a storage-ring Free Electron Laser (FEL) is investigated. The derivation of a low embedding dimension for the dynamics allows the low-dimensionality of this c…
