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 study the effect of the chirped laser pulse on the transmission and associated ion acceleration by the sub-wavelength target. In the chirped laser pulses, the pulse frequency has a temporal variation about its fundamental frequency,…
We demonstrate experimentally the resonant excitation of plasma waves by trains of laser pulses. We also take an important first step to achieving an energy recovery plasma accelerator by showing that unused wakefield energy can be removed…
Autoresonant phase-locking of the plasma wakefield to the beat frequency of two driving lasers offers advantages over conventional wakefield acceleration methods, since it requires less demanding laser parameters and is robust to variations…
The excitation of radial and longitudinal wake-fields by two co-propagating chirped laser pulses in a rippled, magnetized plasma has been examined. This study aimed to clarify the spatiotemporal evolution of wake structures and assess their…
A method is proposed to control the transverse motion and X-ray emission of an electron beam in a laser driven wakefield by tuning the laser spatial chirp. The dispersion of a transversely chirped laser pulse and the transverse nonuniform…
In a laser plasma accelerator (LPA), a short and intense laser pulse propagating in a plasma drives a wakefield (a plasma wave with a relativistic phase velocity) that can sustain extremely large electric fields, enabling compact…
The excitation of wakefields by a triangular temporal profile laser pulse with an abrupt fall in a step density profile plasma channel is investigated analytically and an exact solution is obtained. The excitation is more efficient for…
