Guiding of relativistic electron beams in dense matter by longitudinally imposed strong magnetic fields

M. Bailly-Grandvaux, J. J. Santos, C. Bellei +27

High-energy-density flows through dense matter are needed for effective progress in the production of laser-driven intense sources of energetic particles and radiation, in driving…

Plasma adiabatic lapse rate

Peter Amendt, Claudio Bellei, Scott Wilks

The plasma analog of an adiabatic lapse rate (or temperature variation with height) in atmospheric physics is obtained. A new source of plasma temperature gradient in a binary ion…

Cone-Guided Fast Ignition with no Imposed Magnetic Fields

D. J. Strozzi, M. Tabak, D. J. Larson +6

Simulations of ignition-scale fast ignition targets have been performed with the new integrated Zuma-Hydra PIC-hydrodynamic capability. We consider an idealized spherical DT fuel a…

Complete temporal characterisation of asymmetric pulse compression in a laser wakefield

J. Schreiber, C. Bellei, S. P. D. Mangles +6

We present complete experimental characterisation of the temporal shape of an intense ultrashort 200-TW laser pulse driving a laser wakefield. The phase of the pulse was uniquely m…

A Bright Spatially-Coherent Compact X-ray Synchrotron Source

S. Kneip, C. McGuffey, J. L. Martins +19

Each successive generation of x-ray machines has opened up new frontiers in science, such as the first radiographs and the determination of the structure of DNA. State-of-the-art x…

Self-guided wakefield experiments driven by petawatt class ultra-short laser pulses

S. P. D. Mangles, A. G. R. Thomas, C. Bellei +6

We investigate the extension of self-injecting laser wakefield experiments to the regime that will be accessible with the next generation of petawatt class ultra-short pulse laser…
