Spatiotemporal control of laser intensity through cross-phase modulation
Tanner T. Simpson, Dillon Ramsey, Phil Franke +5
Spatiotemporal pulse shaping provides control over the trajectory and range of an intensity peak. While this control can enhance laser-based applications, the optical configuration…
Nonlinear Thomson scattering with ponderomotive control
D. Ramsey, B. Malaca, A. Di Piazza +7
In nonlinear Thomson scattering, a relativistic electron reflects and re-radiates the photons of a laser pulse, converting optical light to x rays or beyond. While this extreme fre…
Optical Shock-Enhanced Self-Photon Acceleration
Philip Franke, Dillon Ramsey, Tanner T. Simpson +2
Photon accelerators can spectrally broaden laser pulses with high efficiency in moving electron density gradients. When driven by a conventional laser pulse, the group velocity wal…
Strong suppression of heat conduction in a laboratory replica of galaxy-cluster turbulent plasmas
J. Meinecke, P. Tzeferacos, J. S. Ross +32
Galaxy clusters are filled with hot, diffuse X-ray emitting plasma, with a stochastically tangled magnetic field whose energy is close to equipartition with the energy of the turbu…
Cross-beam energy transfer saturation by ion trapping-induced detuning
K. L. Nguyen, L. Yin, B. J. Albright +5
The performance of direct-drive inertial confinement fusion implosions relies critically on the coupling of laser energy to the target plasma. Cross-beam energy transfer (CBET), th…
Towards the Optimisation of Direct Laser Acceleration
A. E. Hussein, A. V. Arefiev, T. Batson +13
Experimental measurements using the OMEGA EP laser facility demonstrated direct laser acceleration (DLA) of electron beams to (505 75) MeV with (140 30)~nC of charge fr…
