    Invited Speaker / Conférencier invité
    Laser –generated particles are more and more considered to become a competitor to particle beams generated by traditional accelerator facilities such as Linac or synchrotrons. In particular, the high accelerating gradient that can be reached with laser-acceleration mechanisms, almost 1000 times stronger than for conventional accelerators, makes them an attractive alternative. A stronger...

  2. 74. High-Flux Table-Top Ultrafast Water Window X-Ray Source Driven By Mid-IR Laser Pulses
    Mr Samuel Beaulieu (INRS-EMT)

    Division of Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics, Canada / Division de la physique atomique, moléculaire et photonique, Canada (DAMOPC-DPAMPC)
    Oral (Student, In Competition) / Orale (Étudiant(e), inscrit à la compétition)
    Until very recently, Free Electron Lasers (FEL) and synchrotrons offering femtosecond (10$^{-15}$s) slicing technology have been the only facilities able to generate femtosecond X-Ray pulses in the water window (280-530 eV) spectral range. Bringing ultrafast science to the soft-X-Ray offer a wide range of application like studying multielectron dynamics in gas phase atoms/molecules,...

  3. 376. Extreme light in nanostructured targets: shaping fields and managing particle flows

    Division of Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics, Canada / Division de la physique atomique, moléculaire et photonique, Canada (DAMOPC-DPAMPC)
    Invited Speaker / Conférencier invité
    The more intense that laser pulses can be made, the more surprising and extreme are the interaction effects researchers are seeing -- effects that are sometimes hard to control. One way to guide or redirect the physics relationships is to manipulate the composition or shape of targets. Nickel nanowires present >95% optical absorption into an effective skin-depth that is very long, greater...

  4. 106. Diode Pumped Yb:YAG Ceramic Laser Amplifier Modules for a TW Laser System
    Mr Muhammad Raj Masud (University of Alberta)

    Division of Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics, Canada / Division de la physique atomique, moléculaire et photonique, Canada (DAMOPC-DPAMPC)
    Oral (Student, In Competition) / Orale (Étudiant(e), inscrit à la compétition)
    New ceramic laser materials allow the development of scalable, high efficiency and high repetition rate direct diode pumped laser modules. We are developing a diode pumped multipass amplifier as part of a new terawatt laser system being developed at the University of Alberta. Currently measurements are being carried out of the gain and extracted energy from a Yb:YAG ceramic disk amplifier...
