    Accurate, non-invasive charge measurement is essential for high-precision beam experiments, especially at low bunch charge and low repetition rate. Interceptive devices such as Faraday cups and microchannel-plate detectors can suffer charge loss, which is a critical concern for low charge beams. This work presents a simulation-based feasibility study of a compact, material loaded re-entrant...

    Plasma-based accelerators provide a compact and efficient means of generating ultra-relativistic particles [1], making them strong candidates for next-generation light sources. One of the most consolidated X-ray source configurations in plasma accelerators is based on nonlinear Thomson scattering [2]. Here, relativistic electrons from a plasma-based accelerator interact with a counter or...

    In the context of plasma-based accelerators, one of the main advantages lies in their compactness and lower overall cost compared to conventional machines. Beyond acceleration, plasma can also be used to focus (plasma lens) and bend particle beams within compact structures such as discharge-based plasma capillaries.
    Beam bending in such devices requires a tailored capillary geometry and
    a...

    Electron energy spectra featuring multiple quasi-monoenergetic peaks with uniform, narrow spacing are observed when a few-cycle (~9 fs), multi-terawatt laser pulse is used to drive laser wakefield acceleration in a helium–nitrogen gas mixture. This comb-like energy structure results from periodic ionization injection triggered by successive half-cycles of the laser electric field. Crucially,...
