However, due to the complex coupling of the many variables governing the laser-plasma interaction, precisely tuning these parameters based on simple scalings is often impossible or at least suboptimal. Here, we apply multiobjective Bayesian optimization to derive optimal tuning curves for LPAs, both in simulations and experiments. For electron energies between 150 and 250 MeV, we demonstrate tuning of the charge over a range of nearly 100 pC, while preserving optimal beam loading conditions with energy spreads below 5 LB - PUB:(DE-HGF)16 UR - <Go to ISI:>//WOS:001053692300001 DO - DOI:10.1103/PhysRevAccelBeams.26.071302 UR - https://bib-pubdb1.desy.de/record/582302 ER -
