Measurement of ion acceleration and diffusion in a laser-driven magnetized plasma
J. T. Y. Chu, J. W. D. Halliday, C. Heaton +25
Here we present results from an experiment performed at the GSI Helmholtz Centre for Heavy Ion Research. A mono-energetic beam of chromium ions with initial energies of …
High current well-directed beams of super-ponderomotive electrons for laser driven nuclear physics applications
O. N. Rosmej, M. Gyrdymov, M. M. Günther +14
We report on new findings in a laser driven enhanced electron beam generation in the multi MeV energy range at moderate relativistic laser intensities and their applications. In ou…
Observation of inhibited electron-ion coupling in strongly heated graphite
T. G. White, J. Vorberger, C. R. D. Brown +13
Creating non-equilibrium states of matter with highly unequal electron and lattice temperatures allows unsurpassed insight into the dynamic coupling between electrons and ions thro…
X-ray phase-contrast imaging for laser-induced shock waves
L. Antonelli, F. Barbato, P. Neumayer +10
X-ray phase-contrast imaging (XPCI) is a versatile technique with wide-ranging applications, particularly in the fields of biology and medicine. Where X-ray absorption radiography…
Compact Cryogenic Source of Periodic Hydrogen and Argon Droplet Beams for Relativistic Laser-Plasma Generation
R. A. Costa Fraga, A. Kalinin, M. Kühnel +6
We present a cryogenic source of periodic streams of micrometer-sized hydrogen and argon droplets as ideal mass-limited target systems for fundamental intense laser-driven plasma a…
