Journal ArticleDOI
A laser-plasma accelerator producing monoenergetic electron beams
Jérôme Faure,Y. Glinec,Alexander Pukhov,Sergey Kiselev,Sergey Gordienko,Erik Lefebvre,Jean-Philippe Rousseau,Frédéric Burgy,Victor Malka +8 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that this randomization of electrons in phase space can be suppressed and that the quality of the electron beams can be dramatically enhanced.
Journal ArticleDOI
Laser wake field acceleration: the highly non-linear broken- wave regime
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used three-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations to study laser wake field acceleration (LWFA) at highly relativistic laser intensities, and observed ultra-short electron bunches emerging from laser wake fields driven above the wave-breaking threshold by few-cycle laser pulses shorter than the plasma wavelength.
Journal ArticleDOI
Production of a keV x-ray beam from synchrotron radiation in relativistic laser-plasma interaction.
Antoine Rousse,Kim Ta Phuoc,Kim Ta Phuoc,Rahul Shah,Alexander Pukhov,Eric Lefebvre,Victor Malka,Sergey Kiselev,Frédéric Burgy,Jean-Philippe Rousseau,Donald P. Umstadter,Daniele Hulin +11 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that a beam of x-ray radiation can be generated by simply focusing a single high-intensity laser pulse into a gas jet, which has keV energy and lies within a narrow cone angle.
Journal ArticleDOI
Particle acceleration in relativistic laser channels
TL;DR: In this paper, the energy spectra of ions and fast electrons accelerated by a channeling laser pulse in near-critical plasma are studied using three-dimensional (3D) Particle-In-Cell simulations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Short‐pulse laser harmonics from oscillating plasma surfaces driven at relativistic intensity
TL;DR: In this article, the generation of harmonics by interaction of an ultrashort laser pulse with a step boundary of a plane overdense plasma layer is studied at intensities Iλ2=1017 −1019 W −2μm2 for normal and oblique incidence and different polarizations.
