Evidence of resonant surface wave excitation in the relativistic regime through measurements of proton acceleration from grating targets

T. Ceccotti, V. Floquet, A. Sgattoni +25

The interaction of laser pulses with thin grating targets, having a periodic groove at the irradiated surface, has been experimentally investigated. Ultrahigh contrast ($\sim 10^{1…

Particle-in-cell modelling of relativistic laser-plasma interaction with the adjustable damping, direct implicit method

Mathieu Drouin, Laurent Gremillet, Jean-Claude Adam +1

Implicit particle-in-cell codes offer advantages over their explicit counterparts in that they suffer weaker stability constraints on the need to resolve the higher frequency modes…

A global simulation for laser driven MeV electrons in -diameter fast ignition targets

C. Ren, M. Tzoufras, J. Tonge +7

The results from 2.5-dimensional Particle-in-Cell simulations for the interaction of a picosecond-long ignition laser pulse with a plasma pellet of 50- diameter and 40 critical…
