Laser-Plasma Accelerators and Radiation Sources (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The brightest lights in the world create a new future by providing compact particle accelerators and extremely short x-ray radiations. The interactions between ultra-short ultra-intense lasers and plasma in the present pave the way for the development of future particle colliders, tabletop synchrotrons, and atomic recorders for materials, which will offer new opportunities in physics and the sciences.

This book will describe the laser-plasma interactions that are driven by ultrashort ultra-intense lasers, such as electron acceleration, ion acceleration, and radiation generation. Each topic will be described from its fundamental principles to its current status, focusing on novices in this field. In addition, some instructions for constructing such sources will be provided, as well as problems for practicing the design of laser-plasma sources.
