Structure of self-generated magnetic fields in laser-solid interaction from proton tomography
Jesse Griff-McMahon, Christopher A. Walsh, Vicente Valenzuela-Villaseca +9
Strong magnetic fields are naturally self-generated in high-power, laser-solid interactions through the Biermann-battery mechanism. This work experimentally characterizes the 3D lo…
X-ray imaging and electron temperature evolution in laser-driven magnetic reconnection experiments at the National Ignition Facility
V. Valenzuela-Villaseca, J. M. Molina, D. B. Schaeffer +13
We present results from X-ray imaging of high-aspect-ratio magnetic reconnection experiments driven at the National Ignition Facility. Two parallel, self-magnetized, elongated lase…
Enhanced proton acceleration in an applied longitudinal magnetic field
Alexey Arefiev, Toma Toncian, Gennady Fiksel
Using two-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations, we examine how an externally applied strong magnetic impacts proton acceleration in laser-irradiated solid-density targets. We f…
