Towards enabling femtosecond helicity-dependent spectroscopy with high-harmonic sources

High-harmonic generation is now capable of delivering high-energy X-ray pulses with short duration, but achieving elliptical polarization remains challenging. Here, Lambert et al. use a cross-polarized two-colour laser field to produce elliptically polarized X-rays and measure magnetic circular dichroism in nickel.

Observation of longitudinal and transverse self-injections in laser-plasma accelerators

Laser-plasma accelerators can produce giga electronvolt energy electrons over centimetre scales, but their properties depend on the initial injection into the accelerator. Corde et al.study self-injection of electrons into the plasma wake and identify both transverse and longitudinal injection mechanisms.

An ultracompact X-ray source based on a laser-plasma undulator

Synchrotron radiation sources based on a combination of laser plasma accelerators and magnetic undulator have been limited in terms of brightness. Here, Andriyash et al.propose to use a sub-millimetre nano-wire array as a laser-plasma undulator that could produce bright, collimated and tunable X-ray pulses.

Demonstration of relativistic electron beam focusing by a laser-plasma lens

Laser-driven plasmas can accelerate electrons in set-ups far smaller than conventional particle accelerators, but beam divergence is a problem. Here, the authors demonstrate a laser-plasma lens that can focus the beam thanks to field gradients five order of magnitude larger than using traditional optics.

Controlled injection and acceleration of electrons in plasma wakefields by colliding laser pulses

In laser-plasma based particle accelerators, a second laser pulse colliding with the first is used to obtain better control over the injection and subsequent acceleration of electrons. In this scheme, the electron beams are highly collimated, monoenergetic (with energy spread < 10%), tuneable (between 15 and 250 MeV) and most importantly, stable.

Experimental discrimination of ion stopping models near the Bragg peak in highly ionized matter

The energy loss of ions in plasma is a challenging issue in inertial confinement fusion and many theoretical models exist on ion-stopping power. Here, the authors use laser-generated plasma probed by accelerator-produced ions in experiments to discriminate various ion stopping models near the Bragg peak.

A compact laser-driven plasma accelerator for megaelectronvolt-energy neutral atoms

A megaelectronvolt beam of atoms is now generated by ionizing argon clusters, and then neutralizing the ions using Rydberg atoms. The compact system demonstrates a high neutral yield, and could find an important application as a sensitive probe of matter.

Control of laser plasma accelerated electrons for light sources

Electron beam quality in accelerators is crucial for light source application. Here the authors demonstrate beam conditioning of laser plasma electrons thanks to a specific transport line enabling the control of divergence, energy, steering and dispersion and the application to observe undulator radiation.

eIF4F is a nexus of resistance to anti-BRAF and anti-MEK cancer therapies

BRAF mutations occur frequently in melanomas, but patients generally develop resistance to agents targeting mutant BRAF; now, the persistent formation of the translation initiation complex eIF4F has been described as an indicator of multiple mechanisms of resistance that arise in BRAF-mutated tumours and as a promising therapeutic target.
