The quality of electron bunches accelerated by laser wakefields is highly dependant on the temporal and spatial features of the laser driver. Analysis of experiments performed at APOLLON PW-class laser facility shows that spatial…
The AWAKE experiment aims to demonstrate preservation of injected electron beam quality during acceleration in proton-driven plasma waves. The short bunch duration required to correctly load the wakefield is challenging to meet with the…
In this paper, we investigate superradiant emission in a free-electron laser (FEL) oscillator using a comprehensive three-dimensional time-dependent simulation tool. Using beam parameters from the University of Hawai`i (UH) at M\=anoa FEL…
Laser wakefield accelerator experiments have made enormous progress over the past $\sim 20$ years, but their promise to revolutionize high-energy particle sources is only beginning to be realized. To make the next step toward engineering…
Equilibrium bunch lengths typical to modern day light sources of tens of picoseconds limit the spectral reach of superradiant approaches for exploring materials and biological samples. In particular, generation of terahertz radiation seems…

Wakefield excitation by structured electron bunches in hollow gaps between plasma wedges is studied using three-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations. The main part of the electron bunch has a triangular current distribution in the…
In free electron laser facilities, almost every kind of device will generate wakefield when an electron beam passes through it. Most of the wakefields are undesired and have a negative effect on the electron beam, which means a decrease of…

Due to the tiny apertures of dielectric laser acceleration grating structures within the range of the optical wavelength, wakefields limit the bunch charge for relativistic electrons to a few femtocoulomb. In this paper, we present a…
X-ray free-electron lasers (FEL) deliver ultrabright X-ray pulses, but not the sequences of phase-coherent pulses required for time-domain interferometry and control of quantum states. For conventional split-and-delay schemes to produce…
A method of slicing of high-energy electron beams following their interaction with the transverse component of the wakefield left in a plasma behind a high intensity ultra short laser pulse is proposed. The transverse component of the…
