Characterization of supersonic and subsonic gas targets for laser wakefield electron acceleration experiments
The choice of the correct density profile is crucial in laser wakefield acceleration. In this work, both subsonic and supersonic gas targets are characterized by means of fluid-dynamic simulations and experimental interferometric measurements. The gas targets are studie...
