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…
Proton beam quality enhancement by spectral phase control of a PW-class laser system
T. Ziegler, D. Albach, C. Bernert +24
We report on experimental investigations of proton acceleration from solid foils irradiated with PW-class laser-pulses, where highest proton cut-off energies were achieved for temp…
On the Heisenberg limit for detecting vacuum birefringence
N. Ahmadiniaz, T. E. Cowan, R. Sauerbrey +3
Quantum electrodynamics predicts the vacuum to behave as a non-linear medium, including effects such as birefringence. However, for experimentally available field strengths, this v…
Spectral and spatial shaping of laser-driven proton beams using a pulsed high-field magnet beamline
Florian-Emanuel Brack, Florian Kroll, Lennart Gaus +17
Intense laser-driven proton pulses, inherently broadband and highly divergent, pose a challenge to established beamline concepts on the path to application-adapted irradiation fiel…
Ultra-intense laser pulse characterization using ponderomotive electron scattering
Felix Mackenroth, Amol R. Holkundkar, Hans-Peter Schlenvoigt
We present a new analytical solution for the equation of motion of relativistic electrons in the focus of a high-intensity laser pulse. We approximate the electron's transverse dyn…
On-Shot Characterization of Single Plasma Mirror Temporal Contrast Improvement
Lieselotte Obst, Josefine Metzkes-Ng, Stefan Bock +12
We report on the setup and commissioning of a compact recollimating single plasma mirror for temporal contrast enhancement at the Draco 150 TW laser during laser-proton acceleratio…
