Dynamics of nanosecond laser pulse propagation and of associated instabilities in a magnetized underdense plasma
W. Yao, A. Higginson, J. -R. Marquès +19
The propagation and energy coupling of intense laser beams in plasmas are critical issues in laser-driven inertial confinement fusion. Applying magnetic fields to such a setup has…
Numerical study of Langmuir wave coalescence in laser-plasma interaction
F. Pérez, F. Amiranoff, C. Briand +7
Type-III-burst radio signals can be mimicked in the laboratory via laser-plasma interaction. Instead of an electron beam generating Langmuir waves (LW) in the interplanetary medium…
Over-critical sharp-gradient plasma slab produced by the collision of laser-induced blast-waves in a gas jet; Application to high-energy proton acceleration
J. -R. Marquès, P. Loiseau, J. Bonvalet +10
The generation of thin and high density plasma slabs at high repetition rate is a key issue for ultra-high intensity laser applications. We present a scheme to create such plasma s…
Joule-level high effiency energy transfer to sub-picosecond laser pulses by a plasma-based amplifier
J. -R. Marquès, L. Lancia, T. Gangolf +9
Laser plasma amplification of sub-picosecond pulses above the Joule level is demonstrated, a major milestone for this scheme to become a solution for the next-generation of ultra-h…
Guiding of relativistic electron beams in dense matter by longitudinally imposed strong magnetic fields
M. Bailly-Grandvaux, J. J. Santos, C. Bellei +27
High-energy-density flows through dense matter are needed for effective progress in the production of laser-driven intense sources of energetic particles and radiation, in driving…
A summary of the beatwave experiments at Ecole Polytechnique
F. Amiranoff, D. Bernard, B. Cros +11
We present a summary of the beatwave particle acceleration program developed at Ecole Polytechnique. In dedicated experiments, plasma formation, plasma wave generation and saturati…
