Detailed study of non-equilibrium characteristics of quasi-neutral TNSA plasmas

Zhe Zhu, A. Bonasera, D. Batani +26

In an experiment performed in November 2022 at the petawatt (PW) laser facility at Vega III located in Salamanca-Spain, we have studied the successful production of several radiois…

Laser initiated p-11B fusion reactions in petawatt high-repetition-rates laser facilities

M. Scisciò, G. Petringa, Z. Zhu +43

Driving the nuclear fusion reaction p+11B -> 3 alpha + 8.7 MeV in laboratory conditions, by interaction between high-power laser pulses and matter, has become a popular field of re…

Spatial characterization of debris ejection from the interaction of a tightly focused PW-laser pulse with metal targets

I. -M. Vladisavlevici, C. Vlachos, J. -L. Dubois +22

We present a novel scheme for rapid quantitative analysis of debris generated during experiments with solid targets following relativistic laser-plasma interaction at high-power la…

High-repetition-rate source of nanosecond duration kA-current pulses driven by relativistic laser pulses

Michael Ehret, Jakub Cikhardt, Philip Bradford +10

We report the first high-repetition rate generation and simultaneous characterization of nanosecond-scale return currents of kA-magnitude issued by the polarization of a target irr…
