With the currently available laser powers, it is possible to reach the blowout regime in the Laser WakeField Acceleration (LWFA) where the electrons are completely expelled off-axis behind the laser pulse. This regime is particularly…
We show through experiments that a transition from laser wakefield acceleration (LWFA) regime to a plasma wakefield acceleration (PWFA) regime can drive electrons up to energies close to the GeV level. Initially, the acceleration mechanism…
Ionization injection in a plasma wakefield accelerator was investigated experimentally using two lithium plasma sources of different lengths. The ionization of the helium gas, used to confine the lithium, injects electrons in the wake.…
