DESCRIPTION:Maximilian Messmer (Technische Universität Dresden\, D)\nLase
 r WakeField Acceleration (LWFA) has emerged as a promising concept in an e
 ffort to build compact\, multi GeV electron accelerators. This plasma base
 d accelerator technique uses laser induced charge carrier density waves to
  create extreme accelerating field gradients.  To attain highest possible
  particle energies\, a high energy laser must be focused over distances mu
 ch greater than the Rayleigh length. As part of my master thesis\, the gui
 dance of terra watt laser beams has been experimentally shown for distance
 s in capillary discharge plasma waveguides.\nThe talk will briefly explain
  the concept of laser wakefield acceleration and laser guiding in plasma c
 hannels\, followed by the experimental results of laser guiding experiment
 s conducted at the Helmholz Zentrum Dresden Rossendorf (HZDR).
