Enrica Chiadroni (LNF)28/09/2017, 08:30Invited Plenary TalktalkBeam injection and extraction from a plasma module is still one of the crucial aspects to solve in order to produce high quality electron beams with a plasma accelerator. Proper matching conditions require to focus the incoming high brightness beam down to few microns size and to capture a high divergent beam at the exit without loss of beam quality. Plasma-based lenses have proven to provide...Go to contribution page

Prof. Howard Milchberg (University of Maryland)28/09/2017, 09:00Invited Plenary TalktalkWe show that using high density gas jet targets approaching critical density makes possible electron acceleration to relativistic energies with low laser pulse energies, enabling high repetition rate operation. The near-critical density is approached in two ways. For 30 fs, lambda= 800nm, <10 mJ pulses from a 1 kHz Ti:Sapphire laser, we used cryo-cooled, continuous flow high density H_2 and He...Go to contribution page

Dr Paolo Tomassini (INO-CNR)28/09/2017, 09:30Invited Plenary TalktalkLaser Wake Field accelerated electrons need to possess a good beam-quality to comply with FEL requirements, or to be post-accelerated in a further LWFA stage towards multi-GeV energies scale. Controlling electron injection and laser pulse evolution are therefore two of the crucial tasks for high-quality e-bunch production. A new bunch self-injection scheme, the Resonant Multi Pulse...Go to contribution page

Tomonao HOSOKAI (Graduate School of Engineering, Osaka University, Japan)28/09/2017, 10:00Invited Plenary TalktalkThe ImPACT program in JAPAN is funding an effort on laser wakefield acceleration (LWFA) with the goal of very stable/repeatable beams that should be used for constructing a plasma-based FEL. Important results on stability, controllability, repeatability of electron beams and staging LWFA have been shown in the experiments at Osaka university and QST. These results will be presented and...Go to contribution page
