Enhanced Proton Acceleration via Petawatt Laguerre-Gaussian Lasers
Wenpeng Wang, Xinyue Sun, Fengyu Sun +13
High-energy, high-flux collimated proton beams with high repetition rates are critical for applications such as proton therapy, proton radiography, high-energy-density matter gener…
A New Optimization Methodology for Polar Direct Drive Illuminations at the National Ignition Facility
Duncan Barlow, A. Colaïtis, D. Viala +12
A new, efficient, algorithmic approach to create illumination configurations for laser driven high energy density physics experiments is proposed. The method is applied to a polar…
Measurement of Stimulated Raman Side-Scattering Predominance in Directly Driven Experiment
Kevin Glize, Xu Zhao, Yihang Zhang +8
Due to its particular geometry, stimulated Raman side-scattering (SRSS) drives scattered light emission at non-conventional directions, leading to scarce and complex experimental o…
Observation and modelling of Stimulated Raman Scattering driven by an optically smoothed laser beam in experimental conditions relevant for Shock Ignition
G. Cristoforetti, S. Huller, P. Koester +20
We report results and modelling of an experiment performed at the TAW Vulcan laser facility, aimed at investigating laser-plasma interaction in conditions which are of interest for…
Measurement of magnetic cavitation driven by heat flow in a plasma
Christopher Arran, Adam Dearling, Philip Bradford +13
We describe the direct measurement of the expulsion of a magnetic field from a plasma driven by heat flow. Using a laser to heat a column of gas within an applied magnetic field, w…
Kinetic simulations of fusion ignition with hot-spot ablator mix
James D. Sadler, Yingchao Lu, Benjamin Spiers +9
Inertial confinement fusion fuel suffers increased X-ray radiation losses when carbon from the capsule ablator mixes into the hot-spot. Here we present one and two-dimensional ion…
Orbital angular momentum coupling in elastic photon-photon scattering
Ramy Aboushelbaya, Kevin Glize, Alexander F. Savin +8
In this letter, we investigate the effect of orbital angular momentum (OAM) on elastic photon-photon scattering in vacuum for the first time. We define exact solutions to the vacuu…
