Theoretical method for generating regular spatiotemporal pulsed-beam with controlled transverse-spatiotemporal dispersion
Zhaoyang Li, Noriaki Miyanaga
Herein we theoretically report a method that generates a transverse-spatiotemporal dispersion (T-STD), which is distinct from previous spatial, temporal, and longitudinal-spatiotem…

Magnetized Fast Isochoric Laser Heating for Efficient Creation of Ultra-High-Energy-Density States
Shohei Sakata, Seungho Lee, Tomoyuki Johzaki +36
The quest for the inertial confinement fusion (ICF) ignition is a grand challenge, as exemplified by extraordinary large laser facilities. Fast isochoric heating of a pre-compresse…

Laser-ion acceleration via anomalous electron heating
A. Yogo, K. Mima, N. Iwata +23
Using a kilojoule class laser, we demonstrate for the first time that high-contrast picosecond pulses are advantageous for ion acceleration. We show that a laser pulse with optimum…
