Direct laser acceleration of ions by short frequency-chirped laser pulses is investigated theoretically. We demonstrate that intense beams of ions with a kinetic energy broadening of about 1 % can be generated. The chirping of the laser…
Ion beams generated with ultra-intense lasers-plasma accelerators hold promises to provide compact and affordable beams of relativistic ions. One of the most efficient acceleration setups was demonstrated to be direct acceleration by the…
The interaction of intense femtosecond laser pulses with atomic Argon clusters has been investigated by using nano-plasma model. Based on the dynamic simulations, ionization process, heating and expansion of a cluster after irradiation by…
Via a non-perturbative method we study the population dynamics and photoelectron spectra of Cs atoms subject to intense chirped laser pulses, with gaussian beams. We include above threshold ionization spectral peaks. The frequency of the…
We consider the Thomson scattering of an electron in an ultra-intense chirped laser pulse. It is found that the introduction of a negative chirp means the electron enters a high frequency region of the field while it still has a large…
The role of laser frequency chirps in the laser wakefield accelerator is examined. We show that in the linear regime, the evolution of the laser pulse length is affected by the frequency chirp, and that positive (negative) chirp compresses…
We investigate the different facets of ion acceleration by a relativistically intense circularly polarized laser pulse interacting with thin near-critical density plasma targets. Our simulations establish that plasma density gradient and…
We present a theoretical study of how linear chirp controls plasma density in a water jet using a two-stage framework. Stage I solves carrier-population and current equations at a single point, driven by a chirped super-Gaussian pulse. By…
The excitation of plasma wakefields driven by chirped laser pulses is investigated using a reduced relativistic fluid Poisson model supported by fully relativistic particle in cell (PIC) simulations. The study considers exponential, linear,…
Nowadays the development of novel particle accelerators is a hot topic for both experimental and theoretical sciences. In the CERN-AWAKE experiment electrons are accelerated in a cold rubidium plasma, generated by a short, intense laser…
The influence of laser frequency on laser-driven ion acceleration is investigated by means of two-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations. When ultrashort intense laser pulse at higher harmonic frequency irradiates a thin solid foil, the…
Well isolated quantum systems are exquisite sensors of electromagnetic fields. In this work, we use a single trapped ion for characterizing chirped ultraviolet (UV) picosecond laser pulses. The frequency swept pulses resonantly drive a…
A chirped laser pulse focused by a chromatic lens exhibits a dynamic, or "flying," focus in which the trajectory of the peak intensity decouples from the group velocity. In a medium, the flying focus can trigger an ionization front that…
A theoretical study of laser and plasma based electron acceleration is presented. An effective model has been used, in which the presence of an underdense plasma has been taken account via its index of refraction $n_{m}$. In the confines of…
Pulse self-compression is a simple and economical method for improving the peak power of ultra-intense laser pulses. By solving a modified nonlinear Schrodinger equation considering the fifth-order susceptibility, we found that…
We propose a novel mechanism for ion acceleration based on the guided motion of electrons from a thin target. The electron motion is locked to the moving nodes of a standing wave formed by a chirped laser pulse reflected from a mirror…
Theoretical investigations are presented, and their results are discussed, of the laser acceleration of a single electron by a chirped pulse. Fields of the pulse are modeled by simple plane-wave oscillations and a $\cos^2$ envelope. The…
Single MeV electrons subjected in vacuum to single high-intensity quadratically-chirped laser pulses are shown to gain multi-GeV energies. The laser pulses are modeled by finite-duration trapezoidal and $\cos^2$ pulse-shapes and the…
Interaction of a frequency-chirped laser pulse with single protons and a hydrogen plasma cell is studied analytically and by means of particle-in-cell simulations, respectively. Feasibility of generating ultra-intense (10^7 particles per…
We show using 3D simulations that the challenge of generating dense mono-energetic laser-driven ion beams with low angular divergence can be overcome by utilizing structured targets with a relativistically transparent channel and an…
