Seeing inside a hot dense plasma
The most common state of observable matter in the universe is by far ionized particles, or plasmas. Thus, a profound […]
Laplace: a project for a laser-plasma acceleration center at LOA
Project LAPLACE is the next big step we propose to make at LOA: a laser-plasma acceleration center with two new […]
Three new research projects funded at LOA
UnRIP: Uncovering Relativistic Instabilities in Plasmas (ANR collaborative research project) The LOA joins a collaboration with CEA and Institut […]
Cavity-free lasing of Nitrogen and laser gain without population inversion
The blue “air laser”, or more specifically the lasing emission at 391 nm from remotely excited ionized nitrogen molecules, has […]
Long term stability of a kHZ laser-plasma accelerator
Laser-plasma acceleration enables the generation and acceleration of electrons beams over very short distances due to extreme longitudinal accelerating fields, […]
Phase-locked laser-wakefield electron acceleration
A Laser-Plasma Accelerator (LPA) uses accelerating fields (wakefield) that are typically 3 orders of magnitude higher than in radio-frequency accelerators. […]
Two color soft x-ray laser
X and soft X-ray coherent sources are widely used tools to probe ultrafast dynamics of the matter on the nanometer […]
