Scaling Interferometry to the Multi-Petawatt Regime
Mara L. Klebonas, Hernan J. Quevedo, Calin I. Hojbota +6
Pre-plasma conditions strongly influence laser-plasma interactions in the multi-petawatt (MPW) regime, increasing the need for reliable early-time plasma evolution diagnostics. Amo…

Creation of super-high-flux photo-neutrons and gamma-rays > 8 MeV using a petawatt laser to irradiate high-Z solid targets
E. Liang, W. Lo, B. Cage +9
We report the creation of super-high-flux gamma-rays with energy >8 MeV and photo-neutrons via the (g,n) reaction near giant dipole resonance energies (8 - 20 MeV), using the ~130…
