A- Best results in LPA.
In experiments at LBNL the energy gain was extended to the GeV range using higher laser powers (40TW) using longer plasma channels (3.3cm) and lower plasma densities (10^18 cm-3) so to extend the dephasing length:

MAX-PLANCK-INSTITUTE FUR QUANTENOPTIK have demonstrated quasimonoenegetic electron beams as high as 500MeV by focusing a 750mJ, 42fs laser pulse into a gas filled capillary discharge waveguide:

At RAL additional experiments with capillary discharge waveguides suggest taht in certain operation regimes electron self-trapping may be assisted by laser ionization of atoms or ions within the capillary
