Abstract

The FAMU experiment at RIKEN-RAL is a muonic atom experiment with the aim to determine the Zemach radius of the proton by measuring the 1s hyperfine splitting in muonic hydrogen. The activity of the FAMU Collaboration in the years 2015-2023 enabled the final optimisation of the detector-target setup as well as the gas working condition in terms of temperature, pressure and gas mixture composition. The experiment has started its data taking in July 2023. The status of the detector setup for the 2023 experimental runs, for the beam characterisation and muonic X-ray detection in the 100-200 keV energy range, is presented and discussed., Comment: Submitted to JINST

Abstract

The construction of a novel user facility employing laser-driven plasma acceleration with superior beam quality will require an industrial grade, high repetition rate petawatt laser driver which is beyond existing technology. However, with the ongoing fast development of chirped pulse amplification and high average power laser technology, options can be identified depending on the envisioned laser-plasma acceleration scheme and on the time scale for construction. Here we discuss laser requirements for the EuPRAXIA infrastructure design and identify a suitable laser concepts that is likely to fulfil such requirements with a moderate development of existing technologies., Comment: 12 pages, 9 figures, European Advances Accelerator Conference, 2017

Abstract

The FAMU experiment aims to measure for the first time the hyperfine splitting of the muonic hydrogen ground state. From this measurement the proton Zemach radius can be derived and this will shed light on the determination of the proton charge radius. In this paper, we describe the scientific goal, the method and the detailed preparatory work. This includes the outcome of preliminary measurements, subsequent refined simulations and the evaluation of the expected results. The experimental setup being built for the measurement of the hyperfine splitting to be performed at the RAL laboratory muon facility is also described.

17. Achievements and Future Perspectives of the Trivalent Thulium-Ion-Doped Mixed-Sesquioxide Ceramics for Laser Applications

Author

Pirri, A., Maksimov, R. N., Li, J., Vannini, M., Toci, G., Pirri, A., Maksimov, R. N., Li, J., Vannini, M., and Toci, G.

Abstract

This paper is devoted to reviewing the latest results achieved in solid-state lasers based on thulium-doped mixed-sesquioxide ceramics, i.e., (Lu,Sc,Y)2O3 . The near-and mid-infrared regions are of interest for many applications, from medicine to remote sensing, as they match molecular fingerprints and cover several atmospheric transparency windows. These matrices are characterized by a strong electron–phonon interaction—which results in a large splitting of the ground state—and by a spectral broadening of the optical transition suitable for developing tunable and short-pulse lasers. In particular, the manuscript reports on the trivalent thulium laser transitions at 1.5, 1.9, and 2.3 µm, along with the thermal and optical characteristics of the (Lu,Sc,Y)2O3 ceramics, including the fabrication techniques, spectroscopic and optical properties, and laser performances achieved in different pumping regimes, such as continuous-wave (CW), quasi-CW, and pulsed modes. A comparison of the performance obtained with these mixed-sesquioxide ceramics and with the corresponding crystals is reported. © 2022 by the authors. Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland.

Abstract

The Horizon 2020 Project EuPRAXIA (European Plasma Research Accelerator with eXcellence In Applications) is producing a conceptual design report for a highly compact and cost-effective European facility with multi-GeV electron beams accelerated using plasmas. EuPRAXIA will be set up as a distributed Open Innovation platform with two construction sites, one with a focus on beam-driven plasma acceleration (PWFA) and another site with a focus on laser-driven plasma acceleration (LWFA). User areas at both sites will provide access to FEL pilot experiments, positron generation and acceleration, compact radiation sources, and test beams for HEP detector development. Support centres in four different countries will complement the pan-European implementation of this infrastructure., Proceedings of the 10th Int. Particle Accelerator Conf., IPAC2019, Melbourne, Australia

Abstract

The diffraction-limited beam of a copper vapor laser employing a self-filtering unstable resonator w used to induce second harmonic generation in a nonlinear crystal of [Beta]-barium borate. Despite th moderate emission characteristics of our small-scale laser device (1.5-W average power, 25-kW peak p at 511 nm), we obtained average and peak power conversion efficiencies of approximately 20 and 30%, respectively, which improved on the previously reported results by a factor of 2. Key words: Copper vapor laser, self-filtering unstable resonator, second harmonic generation, [Beta]-barium borate., A study reports on efficient second harmonic generation (SHG) in beta-barium borate. The SHG was achieved in the nonlinear crystal via the pumping action of a copper vapor laser's diffraction-limited beam at 1.5-W average power and 25-kW peak power. The experiment yielded average and maximum power SHG conversion efficiencies of about 20% and 30%, respectively, indicating better results over previous experiments.

Abstract

We present the spectroscopic characterization and laser operation of a 2%at. Yb doped Gd3(Al0.5Ga0.5)5O12 (Yb:GAGG) crystal, grown with the Czochralski method. We determined the absorption and the emission spectrum, the upper level lifetime, and the thermal conductivity. The internal disordered structure determines a significant broadening of the emission band (12.1 nm FWHM) with respect to the parent composition Yb:GGG (8 nm FWHM). The laser performances were evaluated on an end pumped cavity, using a CW semiconductor laser as the pump source. We obtained a maximum slope efficiency of 60.8% and an optical to optical efficiency of 46.0%, with a maximum output power of 4 W, limited only by the available pump power. The tuning range extends from 995 nm to 1050 nm. To our knowledge this is the first spectroscopic investigation and the first assessment of the laser performance of an Yb:GAGG crystal with this composition (i.e. Al/Ga balance = 0.5/0.5).

50. Transparent ceramics for laser applications

Abstract

Introduction: Transparent ceramics represent a state-of-the-art class of ceramic materials, with prerequisites of transparency being the absence of defects, secondary phases and pores. Since transparent ceramics are polycrystalline, they have good thermal and mechanical properties that make them valid substitutes to glasses and single crystals as solid state laser hosts. The crystalline structure and higher thermal conductivity of ceramics compared to glasses provide much better performance for high power pulsed lasers and more efficient cooling. On the other hand, the wide range of shaping methods represents a strong advantage of ceramic technology in comparison with that of single crystals, as it allows the production of near-net-shape components with a well-defined internal structure. Furthermore, in comparison with the ceramic production, common single crystal growth methods are time consuming and expensive processes. In the case of high-power lasers the performance may be negatively affected by the presence of temperature gradients inside the gain medium, and eventually may lead to damage and destruction of the component. The presented work shows that it is possible to exploit the ceramic process for a better thermal management by the introduction of a non-uniform distribution of the laser-active ions within the medium. The system studied in the presented work is Yb-doped YAG (yttrium aluminium garnet, Y3Al5O12) and structures with both uniform and variable dopant distribution were produced. Materials and Methods: Yb:YAG ceramics were prepared by solid state reaction sintering, where the cubic garnet phase is formed by reaction of oxide powders. The production process can be described as follows: mixing and homogenization of oxide powders and sintering additive - shaping - heat treatments in air and under vacuum (sintering) - annealing, polishing. Shaping was performed by two different methods: 1. pressing of granulated powders and 2. tape casting followed by thermal compression of stacked tapes. Structures with variable doping were obtained by combining of layers or tapes with different Yb concentration. Material quality was evaluated by SEM-EDX analysis of microstructure, measurements of optical transmittance, and characterization of laser efficiency. Results: Materials with good optical quality (transmittance higher than 80 %, i.e 95 % of the theoretical transmittance) and laser performance (laser slope efficiency exceeding 50%) were prepared by both approaches. Structures with layered dopant distribution were produced, and both the pressing of powders as well as tape casting provided good results. The use of tape casting allowed a better control of dopant distribution and is more promising for the production of larger parts. Discussion: Ceramic technology proved to be a convenient approach for the production of gain media for solid state lasers. A particular advantage lies in the possibility to produce in-situ not only a product of desired shape, but also with a controlled inner structure, the latter leading to improved laser efficiency under high thermal loading.
