XFEL Imaging Techniques for High Energy Density and Inertial Fusion Energy Research at HED-HiBEF
Alejandro Laso Garcia, Mikhail Mishchenko, Victorien Bouffetier +53
The imaging platform developed at the High Energy Density - Helmholtz International Beamline for Extreme Fields (HED-HiBEF) instrument at the European XFEL and its applications to…
Reduction of SAXS Signal due to Doppler Broadening Induced Loss of Coherence
Thomas Kluge, Uwe Hernandez Acosta, Klaus Steiniger +2
We present an analytical and numerical study of how Doppler-induced spectral broadening in laser-heated plasmas degrades the coherence of small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) signal…
Microscopy X-ray Imaging enriched with Small Angle X-ray Scattering for few nanometer resolution reveals shock waves and compression in intense short pulse laser irradiation of solids
Thomas Kluge, Arthur Hirsch-Passicos, Jannis Schulz +23
Understanding how laser pulses compress solids into high-energy-density states requires diagnostics that simultaneously resolve macroscopic geometry and nanometer-scale structure.…
Radiative Signatures of Magnetic Reconnection: An Approach to Remote Probing of Reconnection Dynamics
Sergey K. Ermakov, Michael Bussmann, Alexander Debus +4
Magnetic reconnection drives a wide range of astrophysical phenomena, including geomagnetic storms, solar flares, and activity in blazars. However, direct measurement of key reconn…
Probing ultrafast heating and ionization dynamics in solid density plasmas with time-resolved resonant X-ray absorption and emission
Lingen Huang, Mikhail Mishchenko, Michal Šmíd +34
Heating and ionization are among the most fundamental processes in relativistic laser--solid interactions; however, their spatiotemporal evolution remains challenging to capture ex…
Demonstration of full-scale spatio-temporal diagnostics of solid-density plasmas driven by an ultra-short relativistic laser pulse using an X-ray free-electron laser
Lingen Huang, Michal Šmíd, Long Yang +42
Understanding the complex plasma dynamics in ultra-intense relativistic laser-solid interactions is of fundamental importance to the applications of laser plasma-based particle acc…
The Artificial Scientist -- in-transit Machine Learning of Plasma Simulations
Jeffrey Kelling, Vicente Bolea, Michael Bussmann +19
Increasing HPC cluster sizes and large-scale simulations that produce petabytes of data per run, create massive IO and storage challenges for analysis. Deep learning-based techniqu…
Letter of Intent: Towards a Vacuum Birefringence Experiment at the Helmholtz International Beamline for Extreme Fields
N. Ahmadiniaz, C. Bähtz, A. Benediktovitch +49
Quantum field theory predicts a nonlinear response of the vacuum to strong electromagnetic fields of macroscopic extent. This fundamental tenet has remained experimentally challeng…
Dynamic convergent shock compression initiated by return current in high-intensity laser solid interactions
Long Yang, Martin Rehwald, Thomas Kluge +6
We investigate the dynamics of convergent shock compression in the solid wire targets irradiated by an ultra-fast relativistic laser pulse. Our Particle-in-Cell (PIC) simulations a…
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…
First application studies at the laser-driven LIGHT beamline: Improving proton beam homogeneity and imaging of a solid target
D. Jahn, D. Schumacher, C. Brabetz +7
In the last two decades, the generation of intense ion beams based on laser-driven sources has become an extensively investigated field. The LIGHT collaboration combines a laserdri…
Relativistic electron streaming instabilities modulate proton beams accelerated in laser-plasma interactions
S. Göde, C. Rödel, K. Zeil +16
We report experimental evidence that multi-MeV protons accelerated in relativistic laser-plasma interactions are modulated by strong filamentary electromagnetic fields. Modulations…
Nanoscale femtosecond imaging of transient hot solid density plasmas with elemental and charge state sensitivity using resonant coherent diffraction
