Ultralow emittance electron beams from a laser-wakefield accelerator
Using quadrupole scan measurements we show laser-wakefield accelerated electrons to have a normalized transverse emittance of 0.21_{-0.02}^{+0.01}π mm mrad at 245 MeV. We demonstrate a multishot and a single-shot method, the mean emittance values for both methods agree well. A simple model of the...
