Overview of the Munich project for laser-driven X-ray sources — •Florian Grüner — Am Coulombwall 1, 85748 Garching, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München

In the last years great progress has been achieved within the field of laser-plasma accelerators. Energies on the GeV-scale are reached as well as substantial improvements in stability demonstrated. Our group focuses on applications of such laser-driven electron beams and follows two major paths: the near-future goal is the realization of first x-ray pump-probe experiments that exploit the ultra-short electron-bunch length of few femtoseconds only and the ultimate long-term project is a table-top Free-Electron Laser (FEL). Both goals rely on active control of the electron beam transport. We have started developments of miniature quadrupole lenses and show their impact on laser-driven soft X-ray undulator radiation. On the theoretical side our group contributed work on space-charge induced energy chirps. This talk gives an overview of all activities of the Munich group in the new field of laser-driven X-ray sources.
