Lower Hybrid [LH] ray propagation in toroidal plasma is controlled by a combination of the azimuthal spectrum launched from the antenna, the poloidal variation of the magnetic field, and the scattering of the waves by the ...

In this paper we summarize our recent effort and results in theoretical study of the emittance issues of multistaged Laser Wakefield Accelerator (LWFA) in TeV energy range, In such an energy regime the luminosity and ...

Using an evolutionary strategy algorithm, we optimize the generalized transformer ration of a laser wakefield accelerator. The algorithm tests several realistic pulse shapes by integrating the fluid wakefield differential ...

We report guiding of intense (I = 1.3 +/- 0.7 x 10(17)W/cm(2)) 80 fs laser pulses with negligible spectral distortion through 1.5-cm-long preformed helium plasma channels. Channels were formed by axicon-focused Nd:YAG laser ...
