Interaction of Ultraintense Radially-Polarized Laser Pulses with Plasma Mirrors
We present experimental results of vacuum laser acceleration (VLA) of electrons using radially polarized laser pulses interacting with a plasma mirror. Tightly focused, radially polarized laser pulses have been proposed for electron acceleration because of their strong longitudinal electric field, m...
