Ultrafast Nonthermal Lattice Destabilization and Suppression of Polar Optical Scattering in Electronically Excited -SiO from First-Principles and Deep Neural Network Potential Modeling

Iyyappa Rajan Panneerselvam, Mark Yeung, Charlotte Palmer +2

We present a multiscale first-principles-to-machine-learning approach to investigate ultrafast lattice dynamics in electronically excited -SiO. Ab initio molecular dynamics…

Diagnosing the impact of relativistically intense prepulse on few-picosecond timeframes for short scale length laser-matter interactions

H. M. Huddleston, M. Yeung, C. R. J. Fitzpatrick +8

With the rapid proliferation of multi-petawatt (MPW) lasers globally, a new era of high-energy density science promises to emerge within the next decade. However, precise control o…

Real-time observation of frustrated ultrafast recovery from ionisation in nanostructured SiO2 using laser driven accelerators

J. P. Kennedy, M. Coughlan, C. R. J. Fitzpatrick +14

Ionising radiation interactions in matter can trigger a cascade of processes that underpin long-lived damage in the medium. To date, however, a lack of suitable methodologies has p…

Real-time Electron Solvation Induced by Bursts of Laser-accelerated Protons in Liquid Water

A. Prasselsperger, M. Coughlan, N. Breslin +11

Understanding the mechanisms of proton energy deposition in matter and subsequent damage formation is fundamental to radiation science. Here we exploit the picosecond (10^-12 s) re…

Photo-induced pair production and strong field QED on Gemini

CH Keitel, A Di Piazza, GG Paulus +12

The extreme intensities obtainable with lasers such as Gemini allow non-linear QED phenomena to be investigated according to our calculations. Electron-positron pair production fro…

Single 100-terawatt attosecond X-ray light pulse generation

X. R. Xu, B. Qiao, Y. X. Zhang +7

The birth of attosecond light sources is expected to inspire a breakthrough in ultrafast optics, which may extend human real-time measurement and control techniques into atomic-sca…
