Characterization and automated optimization of laser-driven proton beams from converging liquid sheet jet targets
G. D. Glenn, F. Treffert, H. Ahmed +31
Compact, stable, and versatile laser-driven ion sources hold great promise for applications ranging from medicine to materials science and fundamental physics. While single-shot so…
Laser Interactions with Gas Jets: EMP Emission and Nozzle Damage
Philip Wykeham Bradford, Valeria Ospina-Bohorquez, Michael Ehret +18
Understanding the physics of electromagnetic pulse emission and nozzle damage is critical for the long-term operation of laser experiments with gas targets, particularly at facilit…
Automated control and optimisation of laser driven ion acceleration
B. Loughran, M. J. V. Streeter, H. Ahmed +32
The interaction of relativistically intense lasers with opaque targets represents a highly non-linear, multi-dimensional parameter space. This limits the utility of sequential 1D s…
Measurement of magnetic cavitation driven by heat flow in a plasma
Christopher Arran, Adam Dearling, Philip Bradford +13
We describe the direct measurement of the expulsion of a magnetic field from a plasma driven by heat flow. Using a laser to heat a column of gas within an applied magnetic field, w…
Spectrally peaked proton beams shock accelerated from an optically shaped overdense gas jet by a near-infrared laser
George S. Hicks, Oliver C. Ettlinger, Marco Borghesi +10
We report on the generation of impurity-free proton beams from an overdense gas jet driven by a near-infrared laser ( ). The gas profile was shaped prior to…
