Laser plasma accelerator and wiggler

This thesis details experimental research of laser-driven electron acceleration from underdense plasmas and the characterisation of the x-ray radiation owing to the transverse oscillatory motion that electrons perform during the acceleration process. Acceleration of monoenergetic electron beams to t...
