Resumo
In this work, the current status on the development of a
laser plasma accelerator at the Nuclear and Energy Research
Institute (Instituto de Pesquisas Nucleares e Energéticas,
IPEN/CNEN), in São Paulo, Brazil, is presented. Short
pulses to be produced by an under-development near-TW,
kHz laser system will be used to ionize a gas jet, with a
density profile designed to optimize the self-injection of
plasma electrons. The same laser pulse will also drive a
plasma wakefield, which will allow for electron acceleration
in the self-modulated regime. The current milestone is to
develop the experimental setup, including electron beam and
plasma diagnostics, required to produce electron bunches
with energies of a few MeV. Once this has been achieved,
the next milestone is to produce beams with energies higher
than 50 MeV. Besides kickstarting the laser wakefield accelerator
(LWFA) technology in Brazil, this project aims to
pave the way for conducting research on the production of
radioisotopes by photonuclear reactions, triggered by LWFA accelerated
beams.
