Journal ArticleDOI
Quasi-monoenergetic laser-plasma acceleration of electrons to 2 GeV
Xiaoming Wang,Rafal Zgadzaj,N. Fazel,Zhengyan Li,S. A. Yi,Xi Zhang,W. Henderson,Y. Y. Chang,R. Korzekwa,Hai-En Tsai,Chih-Hao Pai,Hernan Quevedo,Gilliss Dyer,Erhard Gaul,Mikael Martinez,Aaron C Bernstein,T. Borger,M. Spinks,Michael E Donovan,V.

TL;DR: Simulations indicate that with improvements in the laser-pulse focus quality, acceleration to nearly 10 GeV should be possible with the available pulse energy, and the principal physical barriers to multi-gigaelectronvolt acceleration are overcome.
Journal ArticleDOI
Demonstration of a 1.1 petawatt laser based on a hybrid optical parametric chirped pulse amplification/mixed Nd:glass amplifier
Erhard Gaul,Mikael Martinez,Joel Blakeney,A. Jochmann,Martin Ringuette,Doug Hammond,Ted Borger,Ramiro Escamilla,Skylar Douglas,W. Henderson,Gilliss Dyer,Alvin C. Erlandson,R.R. Cross,John A. Caird,Christopher A. Ebbers,Todd Ditmire +15 more
TL;DR: The design and performance of the Texas Petawatt Laser, which produces a 186 J 167 fs pulse based on the combination of optical parametric chirped pulse amplification (OPCPA) and mixed Nd:glass amplification, is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Numerical modelling of a 10-cm-long multi-GeV laser wakefield accelerator driven by a self-guided petawatt pulse

TL;DR: In this article, a self-guided, multi-centimetre-long multi-GeV laser wakefield electron accelerator has been demonstrated using the CALDER-Circ code in quasi-cylindrical geometry.
Journal ArticleDOI
Broad-spectrum neodymium-doped laser glasses for high-energy chirped-pulse amplification
TL;DR: Modeling shows that amplified pulses with energies exceeding 10 kJ with sufficient bandwidth to achieve 120 fs pulsewidths are achievable with the use of the new laser glasses, and a laser system could be scaled to generate one exawatt in peak power.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The first part of the L1 laser, designed to provide 200 mJ <15 fs pulses at 1 kHz repetition rate, is up and running and the L2 is a development line employing a 10 J / 10 Hz cryogenic gas-cooled pump laser which has recently been equipped with an advanced cryogenic engine as mentioned in this paper.
