Highly-stable, 1 kHz, 200 mJ, 1.1 ps laser optically synchronized to a photocathode laser for inverse Compton scattering

We demonstrate a highly-stable, 1 kHz, 200 mJ, 1.1 ps, 1030 nm laser with good beam quality as an inverse-Compton-scattering driver, optically synchronized with 33-fs rms jitter to a photocathode laser that triggers electron beams.
