1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Ultra-low emittance and length-tuneable electron beams can be obtained with the Laser Wake Field Acceleration (LWFA) by employing advanced ionization injection techniques, such as the Two-Color and the Resonant Multi-Pulse Ionization injection (ReMPI) schemes. There, a tightly focused, short wavelength (ionization) pulse extracts electrons from a selected inner shell of a dopant, allowing them to be longitudinally compressed and trapped in the wakefield excited by a different (driver) pulse. In this work we demonstrate, by means of analytical results and Particle In Cell simulations, that 340 as long electron beams with 2.3 GeV energy, 6.1 pC charge, 0.15 % projected energy spread, 60 nm normalised emittance, and projected 6D-Brightness in excess of [Formula: see text] can be generated with a  200 TW Ti:Sa laser system. The beam slice analysis reveals its potentialities for driving a few-spikes attosecond X-ray Free Electron Laser. Furthermore, the ultra-high projected quality, and the extreme shortness of the beams make them ideal candidates for the generation of attosecond and quasi-monochromatic γ photons beams through Thomson/Compton backscattering, or for the injection in subsequent plasma wakefield structures so as to reach TeV energies from staged LWFA.
