Precision mapping of laser-driven magnetic fields and their evolution in high-energy-density plasmas
Lan Gao, PM Nilson, IV Igumenshchev +4
Magnetic fields generated by the Rayleigh-Taylor instability were measured in laser-accelerated planar foils using ultrafast proton radiography. Thin plastic foils were irradiated…
Observation of Self-Similarity in the Magnetic Fields Generated by the Ablative Nonlinear Rayleigh-Taylor Instability
L. Gao, P. M. Nilson, I. V. Igumenschev +10
Magnetic fields generated by the nonlinear Rayleigh-Taylor growth of laser-seeded three-dimensional broadband perturbations were measured in laser-accelerated planar targets using…
Major Scientific Challenges and Opportunities in Understanding Magnetic Reconnection and Related Explosive Phenomena throughout the Universe
H. Ji, A. Alt, S. Antiochos +97
This white paper summarizes major scientific challenges and opportunities in understanding magnetic reconnection and related explosive phenomena as a fundamental plasma process.
Scaling the Yield of Laser-Driven Electron-Positron Jets to Laboratory Astrophysical Applications
Hui Chen, F. Fiuza, A. Link +10
We report new experimental results obtained on three different laser facilities that show directed laser-driven relativistic electron-positron jets with up to 30 times larger yield…
