Plasma diagnostic tools for ECR ion sources : What can we learn from these experiments for the next generation sources
2019
International audience; The order-of-magnitude performance leaps of ECR ion sources over the past decades result from improvements to the magnetic plasma confinement, increases in the microwave heating frequency, and techniques to stabilize the plasma at high densities. Parallel to the technical development of the ion sources themselves, significant effort has been directed into the development of their plasma diagnostic tools. We review the recent results of Electron Cyclotron Resonance Ion Source (ECRIS) plasma diagnostics highlighting a number of selected examples of plasma density, electron energy distribution, and ion confinement time measurements, obtained mostly with the second-gener…
All-Optical Measurement of Background, Amplitude and Timing Jitter for high speed pulse trains or prbs sequences using autocorrelation function
2006
We present a simple method for all-optical measurements of background, amplitude- and timing-jitter of ultra high speed pulse trains or prbs sequences using the jitter dependences of the intercorrelation-peak shape.
Gain sideband splitting in dispersion oscillating fibers
2014
International audience; We analyze the modulation instability spectrum in a varying dispersion optical fiber as a function of the dispersion oscillation amplitude, and predict a novel sideband splitting into different sub-sidebands for relatively large dispersion oscillations
Stabilisation of modelocking in fibre ring laser through pulse bunching
2001
Bunching of equally spaced pulses is reported to be the most stable mode of operation in a passively modelocked fibre ring laser. The ring includes dispersion management, which results in the absence of strict pulse energy quantisation, giving pulse bunching a better immunity to environmental perturbation.
Multidimensional shaping of spatiotemporal waves in multimode nonlinear fibers
2019
Recent experiments have shown that nonlinear wave propagation in multimode optical fibers leads to complex spatio-temporal phenomena. In this talk, we introduce new approaches for the control and optimization of nonlinear beam reshaping in the spatial, temporal and spectral dimensions. The first approach applies to spatial beam self-cleaning the technique of transverse wavefront shaping, which permits to launch an optimized input mode combination, that results in the stable generation of a whole nonlinear mode alphabet at the fiber output. The second approach introduces a longitudinal tapering of the core diameter of multimode active and passive fibers, which permits to generate ultra-wideb…
Spatio-Temporal Beam Mapping for Studying Nonlinear Dynamics in Graded Index Multimode Fiber
2020
We experimentally demonstrate high-resolution mapping of the spatio-temporal dynamics of the beam cleaning process in graded index multimode fibers. This high-resolution characterization reveals the time-dependent nature of the beam self-cleaning process.
Kerr Beam Self-Cleaning in Multimode Fibers
2018
We overview recent experimental results of beam self-cleaning observed in various types of multimode fibers. We analyze the output spatial beam shapes and their connection with the refractive index profile of the fibers.

Search for Higgs boson pair production in the two bottom quarks plus two photons final state in pp collisions at a energy-of-centre of mass of 13 TeV…
2022
This thesis presents a physics analysis performed with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider with data from the Run 2 (2015-2018) period of proton-proton collision at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity used for physics analyses of 139 inverse-fb. The analysis is a search for resonant and non-resonant Higgs boson pair production in the two bottom quarks and two photon final state. Special focus is given to the event selection strategy for the resonant search using multi-variate techniques. In addition, the ATLAS upgrade for the Run 3 (2022-2025) period where the software is migrated to a multi-threading framework is extensively covered alon…
Comparison between simulated and observed LHC beam backgrounds in the ATLAS experiment at E beam =4 TeV
2018
Results of dedicated Monte Carlo simulations of beam-induced background (BIB) in the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) are presented and compared with data recorded in 2012. During normal physics operation this background arises mainly from scattering of the 4 TeV protons on residual gas in the beam pipe. Methods of reconstructing the BIB signals in the ATLAS detector, developed and implemented in the simulation chain based on the FLUKA Monte Carlo simulation package, are described. The interaction rates are determined from the residual gas pressure distribution in the LHC ring in order to set an absolute scale on the predicted rates of BIB so that they can be compared qua…
