Microcoulomb-level electron beam and multi-Joule hard X-rays driven by a high-efficiency laser-plasma accelerator

B. Mahieu, L. Ribotte, W. Cayzac +38

We report on the production of ultrahigh-charge relativistic electron beams and the development of a laser-wakefield acceleration platform at the LMJ facility. Making use of the ki…

Weibel-mediated filamentary structures observed in the ICF context

C. Ruyer, S. Bolaños, P. E. Masson Laborde +16

In light of novel and past experimental results, we demonstrate how Weibel-mediated filamentary structures can develop in the expanding plasma plume of a laser-irradiated foil. The…

Experimental mitigation of fast magnetic reconnection in multiple interacting laser-produced plasmas

S. Bolaños, R. Smets, C. Courtois +11

The meeting of astrophysical plasmas and their magnetic fields creates many reconnection sites. We experimentally compare the reconnection rate of laser-driven magnetic reconnectio…

Numerical investigation of spallation neutrons generated from petawatt-scale laser-driven proton beams

B. Martinez, S. N. Chen, S. Bolaños +15

Due to their high cost of acquisition and operation, there are still a limited number of high-yield, high-flux neutron source facilities worldwide. In this context, laser-driven ne…

Inefficient magnetic-field amplification in supersonic laser-plasma turbulence

A. F. A. Bott, L. Chen, G. Boutoux +17

We report a laser-plasma experiment that was carried out at the LMJ-PETAL facility and realized the first magnetized, turbulent, supersonic plasma with a large magnetic Reynolds nu…
