Recently, there has been great interest growing in ultrahigh field particle acceleration driven by ultraintense laser interactions with beams and plasmas. Although numerous concepts of particle acceleration by laser fields have been proposed almost since the beginning of the laser evolution, there has been tremendous progress in recent years on their theoretical and experimental aspects owing to advances in the generation of ultraintense short laser pulses. The laser–plasma accelerator concepts are reviewed on the laser wakefield acceleration mechanism. In particular, the electron acceleration by the laser wakefield in plasmas is illustrated by our recent experimental results, including the propagation of the ultrashort intense laser pulses in plasmas.

Accelerated particles are ubiquitous in the Cosmos and play a fundamental role in many processes governing the evolution of the Universe at all scales, from the sub-AU scale relevant for the formation and evolution of stars and planets to the Mpc scale involved in Galaxy assembly. We reveal the presence of energetic particles in many classes of astrophysical sources thanks to their production of non-thermal radiation, and we detect them directly at the Earth as cosmic rays. In the last two decades both direct and indirect observations have provided us a wealth of new, high-quality data about cosmic rays and their interactions both in sources and during propagation, in the Galaxy and in the Solar System. Some of the new data have confirmed existing theories about particle acceleration and propagation and their interplay with the environment in which they occur. Some others have brought about interesting surprises, whose interpretation is not straightforward within the standard framework and may require a change of paradigm in terms of our ideas about the origin of cosmic rays of different species or in different energy ranges. In this article, we focus on cosmic rays of galactic origin, namely with energies below a few petaelectronvolts, where a steepening is observed in the spectrum of energetic particles detected at the Earth. We review the recent observational findings and the current status of the theory about the origin and propagation of galactic cosmic rays.
