    The role of transient plasma photonic structures in plasma-based amplifiers

    High power lasers have become useful scientific tools, but their large size is determined by their low damage-threshold optical media. A more robust and compact medium for amplifying and manipulating intense l...

    Gamma-rays from harmonically resonant betatron oscillations in a plasma wake

    The radiation produced when an intense laser interacts with a solid target could provide a cheaper source of X-rays to synchrotrons and free-electron lasers. But they can also produce short bursts of gamma ray...
