Moody, and C. Joshi We investigate a new regime for betatron x-ray emission that utilizes kilojoule-class picosecond lasers to drive wakes in plasmas. When such laser pulses with intensities of ∼ 5 × 1 0 18 W / cm 2 are focused into plasmas with electron densities of ∼ 1 × 1 0 19 cm − 3 , they undergo self-modulation and channeling,… [Phys. Rev.
