Automation and control of laser wakefield accelerators using Bayesian optimization

Automation and control of laser wakefield accelerators using Bayesian optimization

Laser wakefield accelerators are compact sources of ultra-relativistic electrons which are highly sensitive to many control parameters. Here the authors present an automated machine learning based method for the efficient multi-dimensional optimization of these plasma-based particle accelerators.
