Abstract:
In this paper we discuss recent results in the design configuration and modelling of the PLASMON-X project aimed at the development of an innovative, high-gradient acceleration with super-intense and ultra-short laser pulses, and a tuneable, hard X/gamma-ray source, based upon Thomson scattering of optical photons by energetic electrons. Both experiments require very high power, ultra-short laser pulses in combination with very bright and short electron bunches generated either by conventional acceleration (LINAC) or by laser-driven, self injection acceleration in plasmas. The main issues concerning the integrated use of unique laser and linear accelerator installations, and the complementary use of all-optical configurations will be briefly examined.
