Experimental observations of detached bow shock formation in the interaction of a laser-produced plasma with a magnetized obstacle
Joseph M. Levesque, Andy S. Liao, Patrick Hartigan +14
The magnetic field produced by planets with active dynamos, like the Earth, can exert sufficient pressure to oppose supersonic stellar wind plasmas, leading to the formation of a s…
Order of magnitude increase in laser-target coupling at near-relativistic intensities using compound parabolic concentrators
Gerald Jackson Williams, Anthony J. Link, Mark William Sherlock +20
Achieving a high conversion efficiency into relativistic electrons is central to short-pulse laser application and fundamentally relies on creating interaction regions with intensi…
Characterizing filamentary magnetic structures in counter-streaming plasmas by Fourier analysis of proton images
Joseph Levesque, Carolyn Kuranz, Timothy Handy +2
Proton imaging is a powerful tool for probing electromagnetic fields in a plasma, providing a path-integrated map of the field topology. However, in cases where the field structure…
The Unexpected Role of Evolving Longitudinal Electric Fields in Generating Energetic Electrons in Relativistically Transparent Plasmas
L. Willingale, A. V. Arefiev, G. J. Williams +9
Superponderomotive-energy electrons are observed experimentally from the interaction of an intense laser pulse with a relativistically transparent target. For a relativistically tr…
