Abstract:
Laser wakefield acceleration (LWA) experiments have been carried out in an
underdense plasma driven by a 2 TW, 90 fs laser pulse synchronized with a 17 MeV RF linac electron injector at 10 Hz.
Around optimum plasma densities for LWA, we have observed electrons accelerated to 35 MeV. Wakefield excitation has been confirmed by measuring
the electron density oscillation with a frequency domain interferometer. At plasma densities higher than the optimum density, we have also observed high
energy electrons over 100 MeV up to 200 MeV.
