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 their operation. However, the very high instantaneous flux of electrons is a major challenge for any radiation diagnostics system. In this work, the characterisation of the beam charge measured using a diamond sensor in an LPA environment is presented. A dedicated diamond detector with shunt readout was installed at the Lund High-Power Laser Facility. The electron beam charge was measured in correlation with the tuned laser and plasma parameters. The measurement results will be discussed and an outlook on the development of beam diagnostics for LPA facilities will be given.
