Quasi-monoenergetic, laser-driven electron beams of up to ∼ 200 MeV in energy have been generated from steady-state-flow gas cells [1], These beams are emitted within a low-divergence cone of 2.1 ± 0.5 mrad FWHM and feature unparalleled shot-to-shot stability in energy (2.5% rms), pointing direction (1.4 mrad rms) and charge (16% rms) owing to a highly reproducible plasma-density profile within the laser-plasma-interaction volume. Laser-wakefield acceleration (LWFA) in gas cells of this type constitutes a simple and reliable source of relativistic electrons with well defined properties, which should allow for applications such as the production of extreme-ultraviolet undulator radiation in the near future. © 2009 American Institute of Physics. |
