Abstract

To limit diffraction in laser wakefield accelerator, a secondary laser pulse can be used to create a waveguide through optical field ionization. Here we present an optical guiding technique with density transition injection. This technique was used on the 1 PW Apollon laser system to achieve quasi-monoenergetic electron beams up to 2.15 GeV.
