    Abstract : In laser wakefield acceleration (LWFA) a high intensity laser pulse is used to excite a plasma density wave with an associated electric field. This electric field can be used to accelerate electrons. However, to be accelerated the electrons first of all need to enter the plasma wave. This process is called injection. READ MORE
