      abstract     = {High average power, kHz laser-plasma acceleration is an
                      emerging technique which could supply few MeV, few
                      femtosecond electron bunches with high average current. Here
                      we present exciting experimental results, drawing the path
                      towards the first electron acceleration driven by an
                      industrial Yb:YAG laser at multi-kHz repetition rate.KHz
                      lasers usually deliver few mJ pulses and, hence, compressing
                      the output pulse duration down to the few-cycle regime is
                      essential in order to efficiently drive plasma waves. We
                      report on record post-compression results, where 10mJ, 1.2ps
                      pulses have been compressed to below 10fs, with $70\%$
                      efficiency. The interaction of these pulses with an high
                      density nitrogen plasma shows exciting evidence of plasma
                      waves being driven.Furthermore, Particle-In-Cell simulations
                      including the real pulse, the retrieved plasma density and
                      the measured spot size prove the potential of such pulses to
                      accelerate electrons in the few MeV regime.},
