Precision mapping of laser-driven magnetic fields and their evolution in high-energy-density plasmas
Lan Gao, PM Nilson, IV Igumenshchev +4
Magnetic fields generated by the Rayleigh-Taylor instability were measured in laser-accelerated planar foils using ultrafast proton radiography. Thin plastic foils were irradiated…
Observation of Self-Similarity in the Magnetic Fields Generated by the Ablative Nonlinear Rayleigh-Taylor Instability
L. Gao, P. M. Nilson, I. V. Igumenschev +10
Magnetic fields generated by the nonlinear Rayleigh-Taylor growth of laser-seeded three-dimensional broadband perturbations were measured in laser-accelerated planar targets using…
Magnetic field generation by the Rayleigh-Taylor instability in laser-driven planar plastic targets
L Gao, PM Nilson, IV Igumenschev +7
Magnetic fields generated by the Rayleigh-Taylor instability were measured in laser-accelerated planar foils using ultrafast proton radiography. Thin plastic foils were irradiated…
Mega-Gauss Plasma Jet Creation Using a Ring of Laser Beams
L. Gao, E. Liang, Y. Lu +11
Using 20 OMEGA laser beams at the Laboratory for Laser Energetics, University of Rochester, to irradiate a flat plastic target in a hollow ring configuration, we created supersonic…
Hot Spot Evolution Measured by High-Resolution X-Ray Spectroscopy at the National Ignition Facility
Lan Gao, B. F. Kraus, K. W. Hill +19
Evolution of the hot spot plasma conditions was measured using high-resolution x-ray spectroscopy at the National Ignition Facility (NIF). The capsules were filled with DD gas with…
