Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A table-top 20-GW 50-ps CO2 laser system is under operation at the Brookhaven Accelerator Test Facility. We compare laser performance with model predictions.

Latest progress on an Inverse Cherenkov Laser Accelerator experiment is reported.
Download or read book Electron Acceleration in Preformed Plasma Channels with Terawatt CO2 Laser written by and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 57 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Extended cylindrical plasma channels produced under gas breakdown by axicon-focused laser beams may be used as optical waveguides in laser-driven electron accelerators. Plasma channeling of the laser beams will help to maintain a high acceleration gradient over many Rayleigh lengths. In addition, the rarefied gas density channel produced after the optical gas breakdown, and followed by a plasma column expansion, reduces multiple scattering of the electron beam. A high-power picosecond C02laser operational at the ATF and being further upgraded to the 1 TW level is considered as the source for a plasma channel formation and as the laser accelerator driver. We show how various laser accelerator schemes including beat wave, wake field, and Inverse Cherenkov accelerator benefit from using a channeled short-pulse C02laser as a driver.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last two decades, BNL's ATF has pioneered the use of high-peak power CO2 lasers for research in advanced accelerators and radiation sources. In addition, our recent developments in ion acceleration, Compton scattering, and IFELs have further underscored the benefits from expanding the landscape of strong-field laser interactions deeper into the mid-infrared (MIR) range of wavelengths. This extension validates our ongoing efforts in advancing CO2 laser technology, which we report here. Our next-generation, multi-terawatt, femtosecond CO2 laser will open new opportunities for studying ultra-relativistic laser interactions with plasma in the MIR spectral domain, including new regimes in the particle acceleration of ions and electrons.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plasma accelerators may be driven by the ponderomotive force of an intense laser or the space-charge force of a charged particle beam. The implications for accelerator design and the different physical mechanisms of laser-driven and beam-driven plasma acceleration are discussed. Driver propagation is examined, as well as the effects of the excited plasma wave phase velocity. The driver coupling to subsequent plasma accelerator stages for high-energy physics applications is addressed.

Download or read book Mid infrared Lasers for Energy Frontier Plasma Accelerators written by and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plasma wake field accelerators driven with solid-state near-IR lasers have been considered as an alternative to conventional rf accelerators for next-generation TeV-class lepton colliders. Here, we extend this study to the mid-IR spectral domain covered by CO2 lasers. We conclude that the increase in the laser driver wavelength favors the regime of laser wake field acceleration with a low plasma density and high electric charge. This regime is the most beneficial for gamma colliders to be converted from lepton colliders via inverse Compton scattering. Selecting a laser wavelength to drive a Compton gamma source is essential for the design of such a machine. In conclusion, the revealed benefits from spectral diversification of laser drivers for future colliders and off-spring applications validate ongoing efforts in advancing the ultrafast CO2 laser technology.
Download or read book CO2 Laser Technology for Advanced Particle Accelerators written by and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 11 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Short-pulse, high-power C02 lasers open new prospects for development of high-gradient laser-driven electron accelerators. The advantages of [lambda]=10 [mu]m CO2 laser radiation over the more widely exploited solid state lasers with [lambda]≈1 [mu]m are based on a [lambda]2-proportional ponderomotive potential, [lambda]-proportional phase slippage distance, and %-proportional scaling of the laser accelerator structures. We show how a picosecond terawatt C02 laser that is under construction at the Brookhaven Accelerator Test Facility may benefit the ATFs experimental program of testing far-field, near-field, and plasma accelerator schemes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The primary goal of the Inertial Fusion Program at Los Alamos is to demonstrate the feasibility of burning (fusing) a large fraction of a small mass (less than 1 mg) of DT fuel. A major portion of our program is devoted to examining the physics of CO2-laser-irradiated targets. In addition, projects are continuing in the development of other lasers and heavy ion accelerators, and relativistic electron beam plasma heating, as possible alternate drivers. Our objective is to provide the necessary useful energy to a fusion capsule (0.2 to 2 MJ) at the lowest cost. A review of the Los Alamos program is given.
Download or read book Approach to Compact Terawatt CO2 Laser System for Particle Acceleration written by and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 14 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A compact table-top 20-GW 50-ps CO2 laser system is in operation for strong-field physics studies at the ATF. We propose scaling up of the picosecond CO2 laser to a terawatt peak power level to meet the requirements of advanced laser accelerators. Computer modeling shows that a relatively compact single-beam picosecond CO2 laser system with a high-pressure x-ray picosecond amplifier of a 10-cm aperture is potentially scalable to the (approximately)1-TW peak power level.

This book was released on 2023-12-28 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book will describe the laser-plasma interactions mostly driven by ultra-short ultra-intense lasers, including electron acceleration, ion acceleration, and generation of radiations. Laser-plasma particle acceleration and radiation sources are intensively pursued due to their possibility to overcome the current limitation of linear accelerators and synchrotron sources. Currently, the operation of large-scale laser facilities, such as three pillars of extreme light infrastructure (ELI) in Europe, facilitates the investigation of laser-plasma interactions in new regimes. Therefore, the demand for comprehensive studying material to enter the research area of modern laser-plasma interactions is getting high, but there are not many books on this topic. This book can be beneficial for students and young scientists to understand the principle of laser-plasma interactions and design their experiments. Key Features: Comprehensive description for an emerging field of laser-plasma accelerators and radiations A practice book for laser-plasma interactions Instructions for beginners in laser-plasma science The perspective of future technologies based on laser-plasma sources Includes Animation on high power laser operation, Video for visualizing plasma waves Animation on the high-order harmonic generation process and Animation on laser particle accelerations
