Fast Particle-in-Cell simulations-based method for the optimisation of a laser-plasma electron injector
Résumé
A method for the optimisation and advanced studies of a laser-plasma electron injector is presented, based on a truncated ionisation injection scheme for high quality beam production. The SMILEI code is used with laser envelope approximation and a low number of particles per cell to reach computation time performances enabling the production of a large number of accelerator configurations. The developed and tested workflow is a possible approach for the production of large dataset for laser-plasma accelerator optimisation. A selection of functions of merit used to grade generated electron beams is discussed. Among the significant number of configurations, two specific working points are presented in details. All data generated are left open to the scientific community for further study and optimisation.
