Predominant contribution of direct laser acceleration to high-energy electron spectra in a low-density self-modulated laser wakefield accelerator

Predominant contribution of direct laser acceleration to high-energy electron spectra in a low-density self-modulated laser wakefield accelerator

The two-temperature relativistic electron spectrum from a low-density (3×10^{17}  cm^{-3}) self-modulated laser wakefield accelerator (SM-LWFA) is observed to transition between temperatures of 19±0.65 and 46±2.45  MeV at an electron energy of about 100 MeV. When the electrons are dispersed orthogon...
