Generation of high quality electron beams from a quasi-phase-stable cascaded laser wakefield accelerator with density-tailored plasma segments

Generation of high quality electron beams from a quasi-phase-stable cascaded laser wakefield accelerator with density-tailored plasma segments

By controlling electron injection into the second period of the laser-driven wakefield in a downward density ramp, a high-quality low-energy electron beam can be accelerated in a short segment of high-density plasma. After a second downward density ramp followed by a low-density plasma plateau, the...
