Dominant factors for time resolution• EB for pump : 40fs(FWHM• Laser for probe : 50fs(FWHM• Timing jitter : ~0fs• Desynchronization in sample : ~1ps/mm
Current problems to be solved• Electron beam
- Energy spread : 100% → <10%- Charge : <1nC → >2nC- Stability of charge : 100% → <1%
Development of the system
Subject : radiolysis of liquids• Direct observation of radiation-inducedphysico-chemical processes within 1ps
(Vibrational&rotational relaxation, intramoleculreactions, geminate ion recombination etc.)

Big Advantage of Laser Plasma Accelerator for Pump-and-probe analysis
・Synchronization is perfectly passive without any electronics.

Laser Plasma Cathode
Laser(50fs)
Electron Bunch(〜〜〜〜40fs)
・No timing jitter and drift between laser and secondary beam.
・Femtosecond time-resolved analysis is surely available after the bean quality and stability are upgraded.
Summary of Synchronization1. Laser vs Accelerator Synchronization System via Electronics
Picoseconds time-resolution
2. Laser Seeded Staged Accelerator
Femtoseconds time-resolution
Available for multibunches
3. Laser Plasma Accelerator
Beam Splitter enables even Attoseconds time-resolution
After Stable and reliable beam generation and diagnosis are established
