Impulsive excitation of a solid by extreme contrast, high intensity femtosecond laser pulses
Sagar Dam, Jian Fuh Ong, Sk Rakeeb +8
We present the ultra-fast dynamics of the interaction between a high-intensity extreme contrast (expected to be around 1e-18 at hundreds of picoseconds timescale) femtosecond laser…
Spatial, Spectral and Temporal Response of High Intensity Laser Plasma Mirrors- Direct Observation of the Ponderomotive Push
Sk Rakeeb, Animesh Sharma, Sagar Dam +5
Plasma-based optics have emerged as a powerful platform for manipulating and amplifying ultra-intense laser pulses. However, the inherently nonlinear and dynamic nature of plasma l…
10-fold amplification of a tiny magnetic field to megagauss scale in femtosecond, ultraintense laser-solid interaction
Anandam Choudhary, Trishul Dhalia, Sagar Dam +8
Generating a powerful and quasistatic magnetic field within the confines of a tabletop laboratory experiment has proven to be a persistent challenge. The creation of magnetized hig…
Capturing the three dimensional, nano-scale, pico-second dynamics of plasma mirrors with intense ultrashort laser wavefront measurement
Sk Rakeeb, Sagar Dam, Ameya Parab +3
We present a direct measurement of the nanoscale dynamics of plasma mirrors using wavefront measurement techniques. This two-dimensional measurement, performed via pump-probe diagn…
