Vacuum Laser Acceleration Tests

We propose to test for the possibility of accelerating an electron beam (utilizing the existing high-power CO2 laser and low emittance electron beam at Brookhaven Accelerator Test Facility) in vacuum to the current CO2 laser power limit. The latest vacuum laser acceleration results can be verified [1] by the schemes discussed here.

Vacuum Laser Acceleration

The purpose of this communication is to comment on and discuss laser acceleration of electrons in vacuum. In particular, we will: (i) critique the recent paper by C.M. Haaland [ 11, titled “Laser electron acceleration in vacuum”, (ii) discuss some general features and characteristics of laser acceleration in vacuum and (iii) propose a vacuum laser acceleration concept called the “vacuum beat wa...

Laser Acceleration in Vacuum

This paper explores the use of the large electric fields of high-brightness lasers (e.g., up to order TV/cm) to accelerate particles. Unfortunately, as is well known, it is difficult to couple the vacuum field of the laser to particles so as to achieve a net energy gain. In principle, the energy gain near the focus of the laser can be quite high, i.e., on the order of the work done in crossing ...
