Dynamics of nanosecond laser pulse propagation and of associated instabilities in a magnetized underdense plasma
W. Yao, A. Higginson, J. -R. Marquès +19
The propagation and energy coupling of intense laser beams in plasmas are critical issues in laser-driven inertial confinement fusion. Applying magnetic fields to such a setup has…
Laboratory disruption of scaled astrophysical outflows by a misaligned magnetic field
G. Revet, B. Khiar, E. Filippov +20
The shaping of astrophysical outflows into bright, dense and collimated jets due to magnetic pressure is here investigated using laboratory experiments. We notably look at the impa…
Laser-produced magnetic-Rayleigh-Taylor unstable plasma slabs in a 20 T magnetic field
B. Khiar, G. Revet, A. Ciardi +15
Magnetized laser-produced plasmas are central to many novel laboratory astrophysics and inertial confinement fusion studies, as well as in industrial applications. Here we provide…
Joule-level high effiency energy transfer to sub-picosecond laser pulses by a plasma-based amplifier
J. -R. Marquès, L. Lancia, T. Gangolf +9
Laser plasma amplification of sub-picosecond pulses above the Joule level is demonstrated, a major milestone for this scheme to become a solution for the next-generation of ultra-h…
Collimated protons accelerated from an overdense gas jet irradiated by a 1 micron wavelength high-intensity short-pulse laser
S. N. Chen, M. Vranic, T. Gangolf +13
We have investigated proton acceleration in the forward direction from a near-critical density hydrogen gas jet target irradiated by a high intensity (10^18 W/cm^2), short-pulse (5…
