Vacuum laser acceleration of super-ponderomotive electrons using relativistic transparency injection
P. K. Singh, F. -Y. Li, C. -K. Huang +11
Intense lasers can accelerate electrons to very high energy over a short distance. Such compact accelerators have several potential applications including fast ignition, high energ…
Volumetric heating of nanowire arrays to keV temperatures using kilojoule-scale petawatt laser interactions
M. P. Hill, O. Humphries, R. Royle +19
We present picosecond-resolution streaked K-shell spectra from 400 nm-diameter nickel nanowire arrays, demonstrating the ability to generate large volumes of high energy density pl…
Nano-scale ultra-dense Z-pinches formation from laser-irradiated nanowire arrays
Vural Kaymak, Alexander Pukhov, Vyacheslav N. Shlyaptsev +1
We show that ulta-dense Z-pinches with nanoscale dimensions can be generated by irradiating aligned nanowires with femtosecond laser pulses of relativistic intensity. Using fully t…
