Abstract
Since it is possible to form laser pulses with a frequency much larger than the frequency of visible light, Prof. T.Tajima proposed using such pulse to accelerate the particles at its injection into the crystal. Here, the wakefield excitation in the metallic-density plasma and the electron acceleration by laser pulse are simulated. The accelerating gradient has been ob-tained approximately 3TV/m. It is shown that, as in ordinary plasma, with time beam-plasma wakefield acceleration is added to laser wakefield acceleration.
