Abstract
Abstract Quasi-monoenergetic electron beams of energies 12 MeV to over 200 MeV are generated from both nitrogen and helium gas targets with 7TW laser pulses. Typically nitrogen gas interactions lead to electron bunches in the range of 12 to 50 MeV varying from shot to shot. Helium gas leads to higher energy electron bunches from 25 to 100 MeV. Occasionally exceptionally high energy bunches of electrons up to 200 MeV are observed from nitrogen and helium. Initial full two-dimensional simulations indicate the production of 20–30 MeV electron energy bunches for the typical interaction conditions as the electrons are injected from wave breaking in the plasma wake behind the laser pulse and injected into the strong electric field gradient propagating with the optical pulse. This is consistent with the experimental observations from the majority of shots. Pulse compression during propagation in the high density plasma does not allow the threshold conditions for the full bubble regime to be reached. However, the electric acceleration field in the wakefield cavity is still sufficient to lead to the formation of a bunch of electrons with an energy peak in the range of 20 to 30 MeV. In order to explain the occasional high energy shots most likely a lower density channel created by the laser prepulse may occasionally form a natural low density electron guide channel giving ideal conditions for acceleration over much longer lengths leading to the high energies observed.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
