Effect of chirp on self-modulation and laser wakefield electron acceleration in the regime of quasimonoenergetic electron beam generation
Strongly self-modulated regime of laser wakefield electron acceleration has been experimentally studied using positively/negatively chirped Ti:sapphire laser pulses with duration ≥45 fs, and intensity ≤1.2×10^{18} W/cm^{2} interacting with a plasma having density >5×10^{19} cm^{-3}. The total...
