Random scan optimization of a laser-plasma electron injector based on fast particle-in-cell simulations

Le résumé fourni par la source

The optimization and advanced study of a laser-plasma electron injector are presented based on a truncated ionization 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 a large dataset for laser-plasma accelerator optimization. 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 detail. All data generated are left open to the scientific community for further study and optimization.
