Phase control of multi-photon electron-positron pair creation from vacuum

C. K. Li, X. X. Zhou, B. An +3

We investigate the creation of electron-positron pairs by two spatiotemporally inhomogeneous electric fields with a relative phase, employing computational quantum field theory. We…

Weibel-mediated filamentary structures observed in the ICF context

C. Ruyer, S. Bolaños, P. E. Masson Laborde +16

In light of novel and past experimental results, we demonstrate how Weibel-mediated filamentary structures can develop in the expanding plasma plume of a laser-irradiated foil. The…

Development of a platform for experimental and computational studies of magnetic and radiative effects on astrophysically-relevant jets at OMEGA

G. Rigon, C. Stoeckl, T. M. Johnson +3

Accurate modeling of astrophysical jets is critical for understanding accretion systems and their impact on the interstellar medium. While astronomical observations can validate mo…
