Description

Accurate measurement of shot-to-shot fluctuations in electron beams produced by laser-plasma accelerators (LPAs) is important for their development. Reliable monitoring of beam reproducibility and stability is crucial for accelerator operation. However, the high peak current and electromagnetic pulse environment make beam diagnostics challenging. In this work, preliminary results of bunch charge measurements using a diamond detector in an LPA environment are presented. A dedicated sCVD diamond detector was installed at the Lund High-Power Laser Facility. The average electron bunch charge was measured via a transverse beam scan. The measurement results are discussed, and an outlook on the development of diamond-based beam diagnostics and dosimetric applications for LPA facilities will be given.
