Ionization injection in a laser wakefield accelerator subject to a transverse magnetic field

Ionization injection in a laser wakefield accelerator subject to a transverse magnetic field

The effect of an external transverse magnetic field on ionization injection of electrons in a laser wakefield accelerator (LWFA) is investigated by theoretical analysis and particle-in-cell simulations. On application of a few tens of Tesla magnetic field, both the electron trapping condition and th...
