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
Electron Acceleration by a Wake Field Forced by an Intense Ultrashort Laser Pulse
Victor Malka,Sven Fritzler,Erik Lefebvre,M. M. Aléonard,Frédéric Burgy,Jean-Paul Chambaret,J. F. Chemin,Karl Krushelnick,G. Malka,Stuart Mangles,Zulfikar Najmudin,M. Pittman,Jean-Philippe Rousseau,J. N. Scheurer,B. Walton,A. E. Dangor +15 more
TL;DR: It is shown that a gain in maximum electron energy of up to 200 megaelectronvolts can be achieved, along with an improvement in the quality of the ultrashort electron beam in the forced laser wake field regime.
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
10-10 temporal contrast for femtosecond ultraintense lasers by cross-polarized wave generation
Aurélie Jullien,Olivier Albert,Frédéric Burgy,Guy Hamoniaux,Jean-Philippe Rousseau,Jean-Paul Chambaret,Frédérika Augé-Rochereau,Gilles Chériaux,Jean Etchepare,N. Minkovski,Solomon M. Saltiel +10 more
TL;DR: Nonlinear properties associated with chi(3) tensor elements in BaF2 cubic crystal are taken advantage to improve the temporal contrast of femtosecond laser pulses and obtain a transmission efficiency of 10% and 10(-10) contrast with an input pulse in the millijoule range.
Journal ArticleDOI
A high-intensity highly coherent soft X-ray femtosecond laser seeded by a high harmonic beam
Philippe Zeitoun,Gabriel Faivre,Stéphane Sebban,Tomas Mocek,A. Hallou,Marta Fajardo,D. Aubert,Philippe Balcou,Frédéric Burgy,Denis Douillet,Sophie Kazamias,G. de Lacheze-Murel,T. Lefrou,S. Le Pape,Pascal Mercère,Hamed Merdji,Anne-Sophie Morlens,Jean-Philippe Rousseau,Constance Valentin +18 more
TL;DR: A soft X-ray laser chain is established that shows how practical bottlenecks in the quest for high intensities can in principle be overcome and should be readily applicable on all existing laser-driven softX-ray facilities.
