Laser wakefield excitation and measurement by femtosecond longitudinal interferometry

Summary form only given. The ability to measure plasma wave microstructure directly is important for addressing fundamental issues of wakefield generation and propagation. We report femtosecond time-resolved measurements of the longitudinal and radial structure of laser wakefield oscillations using...

Description
Summary:Summary form only given. The ability to measure plasma wave microstructure directly is important for addressing fundamental issues of wakefield generation and propagation. We report femtosecond time-resolved measurements of the longitudinal and radial structure of laser wakefield oscillations using an all optical technique known as photon acceleration.
