Multiple pulse resonantly enhanced laser plasma wakefield acceleration
AIP Conference Proceedings 1507 (2012) 872-873
Abstract:
We present an outline of experiments being conducted at Oxford University on multiple-pulse, resonantly-enhanced laser plasma wakefield acceleration. This method of laser plasma acceleration uses trains of optimally spaced low energy short pulses to drive plasma oscillations and may enable laser plasma accelerators to be driven by compact and efficient fibre laser sources operating at high repetition rates. © 2012 American Institute of Physics.The study of parametric instabilities relevant to Laser-Plasma interactions in Fast Ignition

Transverse beam profile measurements of laser accelerated electrons using coherent optical radiation
AIP Conference Proceedings 1507 (2012) 258-261
Abstract:
We use coherent optical transition radiation (COTR) to measure the transverse profile of laser-accelerated electron bunches. The retrieved electron beam profiles are compared to scintillator-based beam profile measurements. © 2012 American Institute of Physics.Modelling of Silicon in inertial confinement fusion conditions
