Accurate single-shot measurement technique for the spectral distribution of GeV electron beams from a laser wakefield accelerator

We present a technique, based on a dipole magnet spectrometer containing multiple scintillation screens, to accurately characterize the spectral distribution of a GeV electron beam generated by laser wakefield acceleration (LWFA). An optimization algorithm, along with a numerical code, was developed...
