Abstract : A “table-top” high power laser has been used to generate beams of accelerated electrons up to energy of 20 MeV from interactions with underdense plasmas. The energy spectrum of these beams was measured using a magnetic spectrometer and proof-of-principle experiments were performed to evaluate the suitability of these beams for electron radiography applications.
