Electron acceleration by coherent laser pulses — •Phuc Luu Thanh and Alexander Pukhov — Heinrich-Heine-Universität, Düsseldorf, Germany

We present the recent development in the electron acceleration scheme by coherent laser pulses in periodic structures. The periodic structures is designed to build up an accelerating field while damping down the deceleration phase. The FDTD model of dispersive material is implemented into the PIC framework to simulate the interaction between the laser and the structure. Arteezy was left. The ionisation process is also included. The efficacy of the scheme is measured through the consistent simulation of the electron propagation in dozen structure periods.
