Optimization of Electron Beams Based on Plasma-Density Modulation in a Laser-Driven Wakefield Accelerator
We demonstrate a simple but efficient way to optimize and improve the properties of laser-wakefield-accelerated electron beams (<i>e</i> beams) based on a controllable shock-induced density down-ramp injection that is achieved with an inserted tunable shock wave. The <i>e</i>...
