Magnetic field amplification driven by the gyro motion of charged particles
Y-J. Gu, M. Murakami
Spontaneous magnetic field generation plays important role in laser-plasma interactions. Strong quasi-static magnetic fields affect the thermal conductivity and the plasma dynamics…
100-kT Magnetic field generation using paisley targets by femtosecond laser-plasma interactions
Myles Allen Zosa, Yan-Jun Gu, Masakatsu Murakami
A target using a paisley pattern generates 100-kT-level magnetic fields. Laser irradiation induces local charge separation on the target, which creates surface currents along the c…
Dynamic mitigation of filamentation instability and magnetic reconnection in sheet-current sustained plasma
Yan-Jun Gu, Shigeo Kawata, Sergei V. Bulanov
Dynamic mitigation is presented for filamentation instability and magnetic reconnection in a plasm driven by a wobbling electron sheet current. The wobbling current introduces an o…
Enhanced photon emission from a double-layer target at moderate laser intensities
M. Jirka, O. Klimo, Y. J. Gu +1
In this paper we study photon emission in the interaction of the laser beam with an under-dense target and the attached reflecting plasma mirror. Photons are emitted due to the inv…
Boosted High Order Harmonics from Electron Density Singularity Formed at the Relativistic Laser Bow Wave
Jie Mu, Timur Zh. Esirkepov, Yanjun Gu +7
We demonstrate coherent hard electromagnetic radiation generation from reflection by the electron density singularity formed at the relativistic bow wave in laser plasma via partic…
Feasibility of optical probing of relativistic plasma singularities
Timur Zh. Esirkepov, Jie Mu, Yanjun Gu +9
Singularities in multi-stream flows of relativistic plasmas can efficiently produce coherent high-frequency radiation, as exemplified in the concepts of Relativistic Flying Mirror…
