Effect of a Femtosecond-Scale Temporal Structure of a Laser Driver on Generation of Betatron Radiation by Wakefield Accelerated Electrons

The brightness of betatron radiation generated by laser wakefield accelerated electrons can be increased by utilizing the laser driver with shorter duration at the same energy. Such shortening is possible by pulse compression after its nonlinear self-phase modulation in a thin plate. However, this m...
