Present Simulation

The emerging intense attosecond X-ray lasers can extend the Laser Wakefield Acceleration mechanism to higher plasma densities in which the acceleration gradients are greatly enhanced. Here we present simulation results of high quality electron acceleration driven by intense attosecond X-ray laser pulses in liquid methane. Ultrahigh brightness electron beams can be generated with 5-dimensional beam brightness over [Formula: see text]. The pulse duration of the electron bunch can be shorter than 20 as. Such unique electron sources can benefit research areas requiring crucial spatial and temporal resolutions.

Complex Target

Ionization-induced electron injection in laser wakefield accelerators, which was recently proposed to lower the laser intensity threshold for electron trapping into the wake wave, has the drawback of generating electron beams with large and continuous energy spreads, severely limiting their future applications. Complex target designs based on separating the electron trapping and acceleration stages were proposed as the only way for getting small energy-spread electron beams. Here, based on the self-truncated ionization-injection concept which requires the use of unmatched laser–plasma parameters and by using tens of TW laser pulses focused onto a gas jet of helium mixed with low concentrations of nitrogen, we demonstrate single-stage laser wakefield acceleration of multi-hundred MeV electron bunches with energy spreads of a few percent. The experimental results are verified by PIC simulations.
