Coherence-based transverse measurement of synchrotron x-ray radiation from relativistic laser-plasma interaction and laser-accelerated electrons

Journal Article Shah, R C ; Albert, F ; Ta Phuoc, K ; ... - Physical Review. E, Statistical Physics, Plasmas, Fluids, and Related Interdisciplinary Topics

We observe Fresnel edge diffraction of the x-ray beam generated by the relativistic interaction of a high-intensity laser pulse with He gas. The observed diffraction at center energy 4.5 keV agrees with Gaussian incoherent source profile of full-width-half-maximum (FWHM)<8 {mu}m. Analysis indicates this corresponds to an upper limit on the transverse profile of laser-accelerated electrons within the plasma in agreement with three-dimensional, particle-in-cell results (FWHM=4 {mu}m)

Coherent ultra-broadband laser-assisted injection radiation from a laser plasma accelerator

Journal Article Miao, B. ; Feder, L. ; Elle, J. ; ... - Physical Review E

The injection of electrons into a laser wakefield accelerator (LWFA) is observed to generate an intense coherent ultra-broadband and ultrashort pulse radiation flash, consistent with the acceleration of electrons from rest to nearly the speed of light in a distance <~1μm. Under certain conditions, the radiation occurs at harmonics of the local plasma frequency. The flash is sufficiently bright to induce large nonlinear refractive index shifts in optical materials; we estimate a source brightness temperature of ~10¹⁸K. We present measurements of the flash spectra, coherence, pulse duration, polarization, and angular distribution, providing a detailed picture of electron injection dynamics inmore »« less

Betatron x-ray radiation from laser-plasma accelerators driven by femtosecond and picosecond laser systems

Journal Article Albert, F. ; Lemos, N. ; Shaw, J. L. ; ... - Physics of Plasmas

A comparative experimental study of betatron x-ray radiation from laser wakefield acceleration in the blowout and self-modulated regimes is presented. Our experiments use picosecond duration laser pulses up to 150 J (self-modulated regime) and 60 fs duration laser pulses up to 10 J (blowout regime), for plasmas with electronic densities on the order of 10¹⁹ cm^–3. In the self-modulated regime, where betatron radiation has been very little studied compared to the blowout regime, electrons accelerated in the wake of the laser pulse are subject to both the longitudinal plasma and transverse laser electrical fields. As a result, their motion withinmore »« less

Quantum Power Distribution of Relativistic Acceleration Radiation: Classical Electrodynamic Analogies with Perfectly Reflecting Moving Mirrors

Journal Article Zhakenuly, Abay ; Temirkhan, Maksat ; Good, Michael R. ; ... - Symmetry

We find the quantum power emitted and distribution in 3 + 1-dimensions of relativistic acceleration radiation using a single perfectly reflecting mirror via Lorentz invariance, demonstrating close analogies to point charge radiation in classical electrodynamics.
