The fourth generation of synchrotron radiation sources, commonly referred to as the Free
Electron Laser (FEL), provides an intense source of brilliant X-ray beams enabling the …

A simple, efficient scheme was developed to obtain near-gigaelectronvolt electron beams
with energy spreads of few per-mille level in a single-stage laser wakefield accelerator …

Laser wakefield acceleration (LWFA) and its particle-driven counterpart, particle or plasma
wakefield acceleration (PWFA), are commonly treated as separate, though related, branches …

Laser wakefield acceleration (LWFA) continues to grow and awaken interest worldwide,
especially as in various applications it approaches performance comparable to classical …

We present the experimental demonstration of density downramp injection at a gas-dynamic
shock in a beam-driven plasma accelerator. The ultrashort driver electron beam with a peak …

We describe a simple scheme, truncated-channel injection, to inject electrons directly into
the wakefield driven by a high-intensity laser pulse guided in an all-optical plasma channel …

Many current and upcoming laser facilities used to study high-energy-density (HED) physics
and inertial fusion energy (IFE) support operating at high rep-rates (HRRs) of∼ 0.1–10 Hz …

Quasi-monoenergetic electron bunches with energies peaked in 10–20 MeV are generated
from laser wakefield acceleration (LWFA) by focusing few-TW laser pulses onto a sub-mm …

Electron self-injection in laser wakefield accelerators (LWFAs) is an important determinator
of electron beam parameters. Controllable and adjustable LWFA beams are essential for …

Undulator based synchrotron light sources and Free Electron Lasers (FELs) are valuable
modern probes of matter with high temporal and spatial resolution. Laser Plasma …
