Physicists Identify Optimum Conditions for Laser Plasma Acceleration

Facebook X LinkedIn Email
Laser plasma acceleration, which has a smaller footprint and higher peak currents than conventional electron accelerators, could be the basis for the next generation of compact light sources. To make laser plasma acceleration practical for future applications, researchers have developed a method to increase beam stability and quality. They have shown that in order to generate high charge beams with a small energy spread, laser-plasma accelerators have to be operated at the optimal loading condition. Electron accelerators are an indispensable research tool; however, even the smallest...Read full article

    laser plasma
    A plasma produced by the interaction of an intense laser pulse with a material surface. Production of ionized particle with high intensity radiation. The narrow path of the intense field produces a plasma channel. The LIPC (laser-induced plasma channel) laser has been adapted towards electroshock weapons as well as induced lightning.
