1 A.G.R.Thomas November 2004 Mono-energetic beams of relativistic electrons from intense laser plasma interactions
2 Contents Background Experiments on Astra Production of narrow energy spread electron beams Simulations Modification of the laser pulse by the plasma wave Wavebreaking injection Conclusions
3 Background
4 Plasma Wave Acceleration Plasmas are an excellent accelerating medium plasma waves can have longitudinal electric fields up to 100 GeV/m potential for high gradient - small length accelerators Injection of external electrons Difficult to achieve high quality beams because: bunch must be shorter than plasma wave length bunch must be narrower than focal spot of laser Wavebreaking as an electron source has previously produced quasi-thermal spectra ( E/E ~ 100%)
5 Monoenergetic Energy Spectra Early simulations by A. Pukhov and J.Meyer-Ter- Vehn* in 2002 show that monoenergetic spectra can be produced by a highly non-linear wake - the bubble Malka et al demonstrate enhanced electron acceleration to 200MeV by moving to a longer focal length geometry 2003 Imperial College obtain high resolution electron spectrometer to look for spikes in spectra *A.Pukhov and J.Meyer-Ter-Vehn App. Phys. B 74, (2002) V.Malka et al Science 298, (2002)
6 Experiments on Astra
7 Experimental Setup Pulse Energy <600 mj Pulse Length ~40 fs f/20 focusing optic Focal spot ~ 25 µm a 0 = 1 2mm Supersonic Helium Gas jet 0.5x10 19 < n e < 5x10 19 (cm -3 )
8 Electron Spectrometer Spectrometer: B-field: 30mT - 1.4T 1keV - 500MeV 2 poles 50cm detector plate 25cm signal 25cm background Detector: Fujifilm BAS Spatial resolution: µm Corresponds to ~2% error <100MeV Linear response over 10 5 range Electrons: Decreasing Energy Central Spot
9 ctober 2003 Results Evolution of energy spectra with density 1.6x10 19 cm x10 19 cm -3 3x10 19 cm -3 5x10 19 cm mJ laser energy At high density quasimaxwellian distribution As density decreases spiky features appear in spectrum b
10 Thomson scattering image How does changing density produce narrow energy spread features? Maxwellian spectra observed when interaction length > dephasing length Mono-energetic spectra observed when observed interaction length ~ dephasing length
11 April 2004 Results Monoenergetic Spectrum E/E FWHM <5% e f e Higher laser energy (600mJ) Finer control of n e Electron beams E = 77MeV E = 3% Shot-to-shot fluctuations in beam energy ~30% beam charge f
12 April 2004 Results Divergence Measurements a b Beam has two components Low energy (< 1 MeV) has high divergence θfwhm ~ 15º High energy has low divergence θfwhm < 2º c d RCF optical depth [arbitrary units] b RCF optical depth [arbitrary units] c r [mm] r [mm]
13 Simulations 2D3V particle-in-cell simulations with OSIRIS laser and plasma parameters close to experiment range of densities studied
14 Strongly non-linear wakefield Small electron bunch Non-linear plasma wave Simulations show that the laser pulse and plasma wave coevolve until transverse wavebreaking occurs. If growth occurs slowly, bunch injection can occur without destruction of wake structure After injection bunch can dephase from wake - results in increased energy spread
15 Simulation Time History Electron spectrum at 4.3 p 10 charge density [a.u] per realtive momentum spread kinetic energy [mc] 1) Plasma wave becomes non-linear 2) Transverse wave breaking takes place - particles injected into wave 3) Further wave periods also break 4) Dephasing has occurred and energy spread is increased
16 Density Dependence 40 time [ps] t 1 t 2 2D Simulation data t 1 wake evolution time t 2 injection time Both t 1 and t 2 inversely proportional to density density [n/n c ]
17 Conclusions Monoenergetic electron bunches from ~10TW system Data suggests dephasing length and interaction length crucial parameters High fluctuations within the laser parameters used here: Need higher power?
