Unsupervised anomaly detection in MeV ultrafast electron diffraction

Mariana A. Fazio, Manel Martinez-Ramon, Salvador Sosa Güitron +5

MeV ultrafast electron diffraction (MUED) is a pump-probe technique used to study the dynamic structural evolution of materials. An ultrashort laser pulse triggers structural chang…

Collider-quality electron bunches from an all-optical plasma photoinjector

Arohi Jain, Jiayang Yan, Jacob R. Pierce +11

We present a novel approach for generating collider-quality electron bunches using a plasma photoinjector. The approach leverages recently developed techniques for the spatiotempor…

Thermal Weibel instability induced magnetic fields co-exist with linear wakes in laser-ionized plasmas

Yipeng Wu, Audrey Farrell, Mitchell Sinclair +12

When a moderately intense, few-picoseconds long laser pulse ionizes gas to produce an underdense plasma column, a linear relativistic plasma wave or wake can be excited by the self…

Probing the pathway of an ultrafast structural phase transition to illuminate the transition mechanism in Cu2S

Junjie Li, Kai Sun, Jun Li +17

Disentangling the primary order parameter from secondary order parameters in phase transitions is critical to the interpretation of the transition mechanisms in strongly correlated…

Seed source for plasma compression in the long wavelength infrared

Daniel F. Gordon, Patrick Grugan, Rotem Kupfer +5

Two color laser pulses are used to form an air plasma and generate broadband infrared radiation suitable as a seed for backward Raman amplification of CO2 laser pulses. Broadband r…

An inverse free electron laser acceleration-driven Compton scattering X-ray source

I. Gadjev, N. Sudar, M. Babzien +13

The generation of X-rays and γ-rays based on synchrotron radiation from free electrons, emitted in magnet arrays such as undulators, forms the basis of much of modern X-ray science…

Demonstration of cascaded modulator-chicane micro-bunching of a relativistic electron beam

N. Sudar, P. Musumeci, I. Gadjev +9

We present results of an experiment showing the first successful demonstration of a cascaded micro-bunching scheme. Two modulator-chicane pre-bunchers arranged in series and a high…

Single shot, double differential spectral measurements of inverse Compton scattering in linear and nonlinear regimes

Y. Sakai, I. Gadjev, P. Hoang +18

Inverse Compton scattering (ICS) is a unique mechanism for producing fast pulses - picosecond and below - of bright X- to gamma-rays. These nominally narrow spectral bandwidth elec…

Optical probing of shocks driven into overdense plasmas by laser hole-boring

N. P. Dover, C. A. J. Palmer, M. Babzien +11

Observations of the interaction of an intense λ0 \approx 10 μm laser pulse with near-critical overdense plasmas (ne = 1.8 - 3 nc) are presented. For the first time, transverse opti…

Monoenergetic proton beams accelerated by a radiation pressure driven shock

C. A. J. Palmer, N. P. Dover, I. Pogorelsky +8

High energy ion beams (> MeV) generated by intense laser pulses promise to be viable alternatives to conventional ion beam sources due to their unique properties such as high charg…
