Betatron radiation from laser wakefield accelerators and its applications
This thesis will detail experimental research in to laser wakefield acceleration (LWFA), with a particular focus on LWFA's as compact sources of brilliant, hard synchrotron radiation, so-called betatron radiation. The first results presented are from an experiment where a ~10 TW laser pulse was...
