Electron acceleration by amplified wakefield generated by two copropagating laser pulses in plasma
A detailed analytical theory is developed for studying the phenomenon of generation of high amplitude wakefield using a seed laser pulse and another coaxially propagating, trailing pulse. The two laser pulses are separated by a fixed distance between them and have the same polarization, frequency, l...
