Laser-plasma interaction

Advances in X-Ray Studies of Ultraintense Laser-Plasma Interactions... [Pg.123]

The overwhelming development of the ultrashort and ultraintense laser systems based on the CPA technique enables to foresee a clear way to get miniaturized (table-top) particle accelerators and related sources of X/7-rays. Such a reduction in dimensions and costs has made realistic the application of these innovative apparatus to several fields, from medical diagnostics and therapy to material science and femto-chemistry. Furthermore, particles accelerated by laser-plasma interaction can be used in the fast-ignition approach... [Pg.180]

Since the early investigations into the relativistic regimes of laser-plasma interactions [5], it has been observed that the frequency and the amplitude of the laser pulse change during propagation such that the following quantity is conserved ... [Pg.342]

For large laser intensities (i.e., a > 1) or for simulation times longer than (M/m)1/2 times the radiation period, the ion dynamics plays an important role in the strong laser-plasma interaction and specifically for the evolution of RES. Indeed, the ES field associated with the charge separation acts in order to redistribute the ion density. Two-dimensional [12,13] and three-... [Pg.343]

As mentioned in the previous section, PIC simulations show that mostly standing, or very slowly drifting, RES are produced during the intense laser-plasma interaction. Equations (17.2) can be solved using the transformation... [Pg.347]
