  15. Is it Easy to Build?

  16. Cubic dispersion (gratings etc.) No significance Quadratic dispersion (glass etc.) Spectral Phase

  18. How to control injection? -inject electron beam from LINAC (SLAC, Nature’07) ANL LINAC Chuck Jonah, 1988 21 MeV; 7 ps; 4nC; plasma density 4-7x1010 cm-3 -use laser-based ionization DWA : “chirped” bunches, break down due to CCR multiphoton ionization • *control of laser PW, wavelength • How to control acceleration? -plasma density -channel guiding (LBNL) -colliding pulse (LOA)

  19. Acousto-optic shaping Dazzler - from Fastlite No need for zero dispersion stretcher Controls different dispersion orders

  20. RGA pulse optimization test w/ SPIDER&Dazzler

  21. Injection assisted by laser ionization • Laser-assisted ionization of atoms or ions • Two types: multiphoton and Frank-Keldysh tunneling • 13.6 eV vs 1.5 eV • DFG: Reducing laser frequency increases ponderomotive potential ~w-2 • HE TOPAS ~100 mJ @ l~9 mm

  22. Laser techniques • Multi-bunch generation w/ DWA • Pulse shaping • DFG due to detuned from 800 synchronized Regen pulses • Atto-second science: CEP

  23. Applications,Conclusions and Perspectives DW should be 7.2 GeV with laser parameters (100TW, a0 ~3, Li~3.8cm) • THz source CCR • Hard X-ray fs source • X-ray free electron lasers • Radiology, biophysics around water window • Early stage of proton acceleration • 1TeV is a goal for HE physics is too far 32 kJ of laser energy (100 lasers of 300J) • Optical Parametric CPA
