The invention provides a method and apparatus for generating large amplitude nonlinear plasma waves, driven by an optimized train of independently adjustable, intense laser pulses. In the method, optimal pulse widths, interpulse spacing, and intensity profiles of each pulse are determined for each pulse...http://www.google.es/patents/US5637966?utm_source=gb-gplus-sharePatente US5637966 - Method for generating a plasma wave to accelerate electrons
