Time-resolved optical shadowgraphy of solid hydrogen jets as a testbed to benchmark particle-in-cell simulations
Long Yang, Lingen Huang, Stefan Assenbaum +11
Particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations are a superior tool to model kinetics-dominated plasmas in relativistic and ultrarelativistic laser-solid interactions (dimensionless vectorpoten…
Elementary Proof of QAOA Convergence
Lennart Binkowski, Gereon Koßmann, Timo Ziegler +1
The Quantum Alternating Operator Ansatz (QAOA) and its predecessor, the Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm, are one of the most widely used quantum algorithms for solving c…
Deep-Circuit QAOA
Gereon Koßmann, Lennart Binkowski, Lauritz van Luijk +2
Despite its popularity, several empirical and theoretical studies suggest that the quantum approximate optimization algorithm (QAOA) has persistent issues in providing a substantia…
Quantum Correlations in the Minimal Scenario
Thinh P. Le, Chiara Meroni, Bernd Sturmfels +2
In the minimal scenario of quantum correlations, two parties can choose from two observables with two possible outcomes each. Probabilities are specified by four marginals and four…
Optimized laser ion acceleration at the relativistic critical density surface
Ilja Göthel, Constantin Bernert, Michael Bussmann +8
In the effort of achieving high-energetic ion beams from the interaction of ultrashort laser pulses with a plasma, volumetric acceleration mechanisms beyond Target Normal Sheath Ac…
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…
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…
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…
