High-repetition-rate solid tape target delivery system for ultra-intense laser-matter interaction at CLPU
Michael Ehret, Diego de Luis, Jon Imanol Apiñaniz +6
The VEGA-3 laser system at the Centro de Láseres Pulsados (CLPU) delivers laser pulses up to 1PW at 1Hz repetition rate, focused to intensities up to 2.5e20W/cm2. A versatile and c…
Ablation Holes in Tape Targets Induced by Ultra-Intense Laser Pulses
Michael Ehret, Jon Imanol Apiñaniz, Jose Luis Henares +5
We present a theoretical modelling able to predict the dimensions of mm-sized through-holes produced in interactions of the 1 PW high-power 30fs Ti:Sa laser VEGA-3 with tape target…
Mode Control of Electro-Magnetic Pulses in the VHF Band
M. Ehret, L. Volpe, J. I. Apiñaniz +2
We present experimental results for the controlled mitigation of electromagnetic pulses (EMP) produced in interactions of the 1PW high-power 30fs Ti:Sa laser VEGA-3 with matter. Th…
Ion acceleration by an ultrashort laser pulse interacting with a near-critical-density gas jet
M. Ehret, C. Salgado-Lopez, V. Ospina-Bohorquez +28
We demonstrate laser-driven Helium ion acceleration with cut-off energies above 25 MeV and peaked ion number above /MeV for 22(2) MeV projectiles from near-critical density…
A quasi-monoenergetic short time duration compact proton source for probing high energy density states of matter
J. I. Apiñaniz, S. Malko, R. Fedosejevs +15
We report on the development of a highly directional, narrow energy band, short time duration proton beam operating at high repetition rate, suitable for measurements of stopping p…
Integrated quantitative PIXE analysis and EDX spectroscopy using a laser-driven particle source
F. Mirani, A. Maffini, F. Casamichiela +17
Among the existing elemental characterization techniques, Particle Induced X-ray Emission (PIXE) and Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscopy are two of the most widely used in d…
Towards an in situ, full-power gauge of the focal-volume intensity of petawatt-class lasers
C. Z. He, A. Longman, J. A. Pérez-Hernández +7
About 50 years ago, Sarachick and Schappert [Phys. Rev. D. 1, 2738 (1970)] showed that relativistic Thomson scattering leads to wavelength shifts that are proportional to the laser…
A 2D scintillator based proton detector for HRR experiments
M. Huault, D. De Luis, J. Alpinaniz +7
We present a scintillator based detector able to measure both spatial and energy information at High repetition rate (HRR) with a relatively simple design. It has been built at the…
Development of an adjustable Kirkpatrick-Baez microscope for laser driven x-ray sources at CLPU
G. Zeraouli, G. gatti, A. Longman +6
A promising prototype of a highly adjustable Kirkpatrick-Baez (KB) microscope has been designed, built and tested in a number of laser driven x-ray experiments using the high power…
Generation of high energy laser-driven electron and proton sources with the 200 TW system VEGA 2 at the Centro de Laseres Pulsados
L. Volpe, R. Fedosejevs, G. Gatti +23
The Centro de Laseres Pulsados in Salamanca Spain has recently started operation phase and the first User access period on the 6 J 30 fs 200 TW system (VEGA 2) already started at t…
