Probing the dynamics of solid density micro-wire targets after ultra-intense laser irradiation using a free-electron laser
Thomas Kluge, Michael Bussmann, Eric Galtier +22
In this paper, we present an experiment that explores the plasma dynamics of a 7 micron diameter carbon wire after being irradiated with a near-relativistic-intensity short pulse l…
Investigating Mechanisms of State Localization in Highly-Ionized Dense Plasmas
Thomas Gawne, Thomas Campbell, Alessandro Forte +14
We present the first experimental observation of K emission from highly charged Mg ions at solid density, driven by intense x-rays from a free electron laser. The presence of K…
Probing ultrafast laser plasma processes inside solids with resonant small-angle X-ray scattering
Lennart Gaus, Lothar Bischoff, Michael Bussmann +33
Extreme states of matter exist throughout the universe e.g. inside planetary cores, stars or astrophysical jets. Such conditions are generated in the laboratory in the interaction…
Impact of free electron degeneracy on collisional rates in plasmas
Gareth O. Williams, H. -K. Chung, S. Künzel +19
Degenerate plasmas, in which quantum effects dictate the behavior of free electrons, are ubiquitous on earth and throughout space. Transitions between bound and free electron state…
Observation of ultrafast solid-density plasma dynamics using femtosecond X-ray pulses from a free-electron laser
Thomas Kluge, Melanie Rödel, Josefine Metzkes +23
The complex physics of the interaction between short pulse high intensity lasers and solids is so far hardly accessible by experiments. As a result of missing experimental capabili…
Bent crystal spectrometer for both frequency and wavenumber resolved x-ray scattering at a seeded free-electron laser
Ulf Zastrau, Luke B. Fletcher, Eckhart Foerster +9
We present a cylindrically curved GaAs x-ray spectrometer with energy resolution and wave-number resolution of , allowing plasmon s…
