Studies of transverse properties of relativistic electrons from laser wakefield accelerator

Laser wakefield acceleration (LWFA) can occur when the ponderomotive force of high power ultra short laser pulses produce wakefields in underdense plasma. The structure of these wakefields are similar to those in rf cavities of conventional linear accelerators, but are characterised by large fields...
