Decoding Sources of Energy Variability in a Laser-Plasma Accelerator

Laser-plasma acceleration promises compact sources of high-brightness relativistic electron beams. However, the limited stability often associated with laser-plasma acceleration has previously prevented a detailed mapping of the drive laser and electron performance and represents a major obstacle to...
