Plasma Laser-Driven Acceleration (IMAGE) DOE/Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory Caption In this rendering from 3-D Warp simulations, a laser beam (green and yellow disks on the right) propagating through an under-dense plasma displaces electrons, creating a "wakefield" that supports very high electric fields (blue and red isorufaces).
