    Abstract Considerable theoretical and experimental work has lately been focused on waves localized in time and space. In optics, waves of that nature are often referred to as light bullets. The most fascinating feature of light bullets is their propagation without appreciable distortion by diffraction or dispersion. Here, analytic expressions for the fields of an ultra-short, tightly-focused and arbitrary-order Bessel pulse are derived and discussed. Propagation in an under-dense plasma, responding linearly to the fields of the pulse, is assumed throughout. The derivation stems from wave equations satisfied by the vector and scalar potentials, themselves following from the appropriate Maxwell equations and linked by the Lorentz gauge. It is demonstrated that the fields represent well a pulse of axial extension, L, and waist radius at focus, w

    Abstract Laser wakefield acceleration is paving the way for the next generation of electron accelerators, for their own sake and as radiation sources. A controllable dual-wake injection scheme is put forward here to generate an ultrashort triplet electron bunch with high brightness and high polarization, employing a radially polarized laser as a driver. We find that the dual wakes can be driven by both transverse and longitudinal components of the laser field in the quasiblowout regime, sustaining the laser-modulated wakefield which facilitates the subcycle and transversely split injection of the triplet bunch. Polarization of the triplet bunch can be highly preserved due to the laser-assisted collective spin precession and the noncanceled transverse spins. In our three-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations, the triplet electron bunch, with duration about 500 as, six-dimensional brightness exceeding 10^{14}  A/m^{2}/0.1% and polarization over 80%, can be generated using a few-terawatt laser. Such an electron bunch could play an essential role in many applications, such as ultrafast imaging, nuclear structure and high-energy physics studies, and the operation of coherent radiation sources.

    Abstract Abstract Considerable theoretical and experimental work has lately been focused on waves localized in time and space. In optics, waves of that nature are often referred to as light bullets. The most fascinating feature of light bullets is their propagation without appreciable distortion by diffraction or dispersion. Here, analytic expressions for the fields of an ultra-short, tightly-focused and arbitrary-order Bessel pulse are derived and discussed. Propagation in an under-dense plasma, responding linearly to the fields of the pulse, is assumed throughout. The derivation stems from wave equations satisfied by the vector and scalar potentials, themselves following from the appropriate Maxwell equations and linked by the Lorentz gauge. It is demonstrated that the fields represent well a pulse of axial extension, L, and waist radius at focus, w 0, both of the order of the central wavelength λ 0. As an example, to lowest approximation, the pulse of order l = 2 is shown to propagate undistorted for many centimeters, in vacuum as well as in the plasma. As such, the pulse behaves like a “light bullet” and is termed a “Bessel-Bessel bullet of arbitrary order”. The field expressions will help to better understand light bullets and open up avenues for their utility in potential applications.

    Abstract Encouraged by recent advances in radially-polarized laser technology, simulations have been performed of electron acceleration by a tightly-focused, ultra-short pulse in a parabolic plasma micro-channel. Milli-joule laser pulses, generated at kHz repetition rates, are shown to produce electron bunches of MeV energy, pC charge, low emittance and low divergence. The pivotal role played by the channel length in controlling the process is demonstrated, and the roles of direct and wakefield acceleration are distinguished.

    Abstract Fields of a linearly polarized fundamental Gaussian beam are derived exactly using the propagation characteristics of a complex-source-point spherical wave diverging from the origin. Intensity distributions are calculated and compared with their counterparts in a truncated series. It is found that utility of the exact fields is limited by a discontinuity inherent in the vector potential from which they have been obtained.

    Abstract Fields of a radially polarized laser beam developed recently [Y. I. Salamin, Opt. Lett.31, 2619 (2006)] are employed to show that electrons produced by atomic ionization near the focus may be accelerated to GeV energies. Conditions for producing a mono-energetic and well-collimated electron beam are discussed.

    Abstract Analytic expressions for the fields of a tightly focused radially polarized Gaussian laser beam are derived, accurate to epsilon5, where epsilon is the associated diffraction angle. The fields satisfy Maxwell's equations, and the calculated beam power based on them is significantly different from that of the paraxial-approximation fields.
