Towards direct spatial and intensity characterization of ultra-high intensity laser pulses using ponderomotive scattering of free electrons
A. Longman, S. Ravichandran, L. Manzo +12
Spatial distributions of electrons ionized and scattered from ultra-low pressure gases are proposed and experimentally demonstrated as a method to directly measure the intensity of…
Imaging electron angular distributions to assess a full-power petawatt-class laser focus
Smrithan Ravichandran, Marine Huault, Roberto Lera +5
We present a novel technique to assess the focal volume of petawatt-class lasers at full power. Our approach exploits quantitative measurement of the angular distribution of electr…
Towards a direct measurement of the quantum vacuum Lagrangian coupling coefficients using two counter propagating super-intense laser pulses
Luis Roso, Roberto Lera, Smrithan Ravichandran +8
In this paper we will show that photon-photon collision experiments using extreme lasers can provide measurable effects giving fundamental information about the essence of QED, its…
A quasi-monoenergetic short time duration compact proton source for probing high energy density states of matter
J. I. Apiñaniz, S. Malko, R. Fedosejevs +15
We report on the development of a highly directional, narrow energy band, short time duration proton beam operating at high repetition rate, suitable for measurements of stopping p…
A 2D scintillator based proton detector for HRR experiments
M. Huault, D. De Luis, J. Alpinaniz +7
We present a scintillator based detector able to measure both spatial and energy information at High repetition rate (HRR) with a relatively simple design. It has been built at the…
Generation of high energy laser-driven electron and proton sources with the 200 TW system VEGA 2 at the Centro de Laseres Pulsados
L. Volpe, R. Fedosejevs, G. Gatti +23
The Centro de Laseres Pulsados in Salamanca Spain has recently started operation phase and the first User access period on the 6 J 30 fs 200 TW system (VEGA 2) already started at t…
