Multi-messenger dynamic imaging of laser-driven shocks in water using a plasma wakefield accelerator

Mario D. Balcazar, Hai-En Tsai, Tobias Ostermayr +27

Understanding dense matter hydrodynamics is critical for predicting plasma behavior in environments relevant to laser-driven inertial confinement fusion. Traditional diagnostic sou…

Bounding elastic photon-photon scattering at MeV using a laser-plasma platform

R. Watt, B. Kettle, E. Gerstmayr +36

We report on a direct search for elastic photon-photon scattering using x-ray and photons from a laser-plasma based experiment. A gamma photon beam produced by a laser wakefiel…
