Collisionless electrostatic shock formation and ion acceleration in intense laser interactions with near critical density plasmas
M. Liu, S. M. Weng, Y. T. Li +8
Laser-driven collisonless electrostatic shock formation and the subsequent ion acceleration have been studied in near critical density plasmas. Particle-in-cell simulations show th…
Overview of recent physics results from MAST
A Kirk, J Adamek, RJ Akers +160
New results from MAST are presented that focus on validating models in order to extrapolate to future devices. Measurements during start-up experiments have shown how the bulk ion…
Burst intensification by singularity emitting radiation in multi-stream flows
A. S. Pirozhkov, T. Zh. Esirkepov, T. A. Pikuz +20
In various media the elementary components can emit traveling waves such as electromagnetic, gravitational or acoustic types. If these elementary emitters are synchronized, the res…
Dense blocks of energetic ions driven by multi-petawatt lasers
S. M. Weng, M. Liu, Z. M. Sheng +4
Laser-driven ion accelerators have the advantages of compact size, high density, and short bunch duration over conventional accelerators. Nevertheless, it is still challenging to s…
High quality electron beam acceleration by ionization injection in laser wakefields with mid-infrared dual-color lasers
Ming Zeng, Ji Luo, Min Chen +3
For the laser wakefield acceleration, suppression of beam energy spread while keeping sufficient charge is one of the key challenges. In order to achieve this, we propose bichromat…
Plasma optical modulators for intense lasers
Lu-Le Yu, Yao Zhao, Lie-Jia Qian +6
Optical modulators can be made nowadays with high modulation speed, broad bandwidth, while being compact, owing to the recent advance in material science and microfabrication techn…
