Temporal profile of betatron radiation from laser-driven electron accelerators

Abstract: Temporal profile of X-ray betatron radiation was theoretically studied for the parameters available with current laser systems. Characteristics of the betatron radiation were investigated for three different configurations of laser wakefield acceleration: typical self-injection regime and optical injection regime with perpendicularly crossed injection and drive beams, both achievable with 100 TW class laser, and ionization injection regime with sub-10 TW laser system that was experimentally verified.

“…The temporal profile of betatron radiation was calculated using the method based on the Fourier transform of the emitted signal which can be determined by using trajectories of the trapped electrons 54 . It takes advantage of the fact that each electron performs betatron motion in the wiggler regime and the emitted signal is composed of a series of sharp peaks radiated at the turning points of the electron trajectories separated by relatively long intervals of silence.…”

“…This value is in line with an electron beam of average energy around 50 MeV and divergence ∼10 mrad in which each individual electron emits in a cone of 1/γ in their direction of motion. The duration of the betatron radiation is usually inferred from the duration of the electron bunch, but here we compute the spectrogram [39], showing d 3 I/dEdΩdt on axis in figure 4(b) and its integration over the frequency to get the temporal profile of the radiation on axis. Most of the radiation is received at early times, with a tail at lower energies arriving at later times, following the structure of the beam.…”
