Fundamental Physics and Relativistic Laboratory Astrophysics with Extreme Power Lasers
arXiv:1202.4552 · doi:10.1051/eas/1258001
Abstract
The prospects of using extreme relativistic laser-matter interactions for laboratory astrophysics are discussed. Laser-driven process simulation of matter dynamics at ultra-high energy density is proposed for the studies of astrophysical compact objects and the early universe.
