TL;DR: In this paper, the authors trace variations in the energy of a laser-plasma electron beam to properties of the drive laser, establishing a technique for stabilizing compact next-generation sources of high-energy electrons.

TL;DR: The European Plasma Research Accelerator with eXcellence In Applications (EuPRAXIA) as mentioned in this paper is a European facility with multi-GeV electron beams using plasma as the acceleration medium for photon science, high-energy physics (HEP) detector tests, and other applications such as compact X-ray sources for medical imaging or material processing.

TL;DR: The EuPRAXIA project aims at the construction of an innovative electron accelerator using laser-and electron-beam-driven plasma wakefield acceleration that offers a significant reduction in size and possible savings in cost over current state-of-the-art radiofrequency-based accelerators as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: The experimental implementation of chirped pulse amplification on a seeded free-electron laser in the extreme-ultraviolet is presented, paving the way to the generation of fully coherent sub-femtosecond gigawatt pulses in the water window.

TL;DR: The Lux beamline as discussed by the authors is a state-of-the-art laser-plasmas accelerator with a high repetition rate of up to 5 GHz with energies above 600 MeV.
