Characterization of laser wakefield acceleration efficiency with octave spanning near-IR spectrum measurements

Characterization of laser wakefield acceleration efficiency with octave spanning near-IR spectrum measurements

We report on experimental measurements of energy transfer efficiencies in a GeV-class laser wakefield accelerator. Both the transfer of energy from the laser to the plasma wakefield and from the plasma to the accelerated electron beam was diagnosed by simultaneous measurement of the deceleration of laser photons and the acceleration …
