Control of tunable, monoenergetic laser-plasma-accelerated electron beams using a shock-induced density downramp injector
Control of the properties of laser-plasma-accelerated electron beams that were injected along a shock-induced density downramp through precision tailoring of the density profile was demonstrated using a 1.8 J, 45 fs laser interacting with a mm-scale gas jet. The effects on the beam spatial profile,...
