XFEL Imaging Techniques for High Energy Density and Inertial Fusion Energy Research at HED-HiBEF
Alejandro Laso Garcia, Mikhail Mishchenko, Victorien Bouffetier +53
The imaging platform developed at the High Energy Density - Helmholtz International Beamline for Extreme Fields (HED-HiBEF) instrument at the European XFEL and its applications to…
Microscopy X-ray Imaging enriched with Small Angle X-ray Scattering for few nanometer resolution reveals shock waves and compression in intense short pulse laser irradiation of solids
Thomas Kluge, Arthur Hirsch-Passicos, Jannis Schulz +23
Understanding how laser pulses compress solids into high-energy-density states requires diagnostics that simultaneously resolve macroscopic geometry and nanometer-scale structure.…
Radiation and Heat Transport in Divergent Shock-Bubble Interactions
Kelin Kurzer-Ogul, Brian M. Haines, David S. Montgomery +15
Shock-bubble interactions (SBI) are important across a wide range of physical systems. In inertial confinement fusion, interactions between laser-driven shocks and micro-voids in b…
Speed of sound in methane under conditions of planetary interiors
Thomas G. White, Hannah Poole, Emma E. McBride +32
We present direct observations of acoustic waves in warm dense matter. We analyze wave-number- and energy-resolved x-ray spectra taken from warm dense methane created by laser heat…
Probing the dynamics of solid density micro-wire targets after ultra-intense laser irradiation using a free-electron laser
Thomas Kluge, Michael Bussmann, Eric Galtier +22
In this paper, we present an experiment that explores the plasma dynamics of a 7 micron diameter carbon wire after being irradiated with a near-relativistic-intensity short pulse l…
Probing ultrafast laser plasma processes inside solids with resonant small-angle X-ray scattering
Lennart Gaus, Lothar Bischoff, Michael Bussmann +33
Extreme states of matter exist throughout the universe e.g. inside planetary cores, stars or astrophysical jets. Such conditions are generated in the laboratory in the interaction…
Impact of free electron degeneracy on collisional rates in plasmas
Gareth O. Williams, H. -K. Chung, S. Künzel +19
Degenerate plasmas, in which quantum effects dictate the behavior of free electrons, are ubiquitous on earth and throughout space. Transitions between bound and free electron state…
Observation of ultrafast solid-density plasma dynamics using femtosecond X-ray pulses from a free-electron laser
Thomas Kluge, Melanie Rödel, Josefine Metzkes +23
The complex physics of the interaction between short pulse high intensity lasers and solids is so far hardly accessible by experiments. As a result of missing experimental capabili…
Bent crystal spectrometer for both frequency and wavenumber resolved x-ray scattering at a seeded free-electron laser
Ulf Zastrau, Luke B. Fletcher, Eckhart Foerster +9
We present a cylindrically curved GaAs x-ray spectrometer with energy resolution and wave-number resolution of , allowing plasmon s…
