Acceleration of Ultrahigh Energy Particles from Fast Radio Bursts
Lin Yu, Tianxing Hu, Zhiyu Lei +6
Two extreme events in the universe, fast radio bursts (FRBs) and cosmic rays (CRs), could be correlated, where FRBs with extreme field strength near their sources may contribute to…
Generating intense attosecond pulses and vectorizing polarization states from laser-plasma interactions
Panfei Geng, Yipeng Wu, Zhixin Fan +7
Vector beams with spatially structured polarization and intertwined spin-orbital angular momentum (SAM-OAM) provide powerful degrees of freedom for tailoring light-matter interacti…
Axion generation and detection in laser-plasma wakefields
Xiangyan An, Min Chen, Jianglai Liu +4
The axions are compelling candidates for cold dark matter, but their extremely weak interaction with photons makes laboratory searches challenging. We show that the quasi-static el…
Gigagauss magnetic fields generated via theta-pinching driven by multiple petawatt-class lasers
Huanyu Song, Zhengming Sheng, Linzheng Wang +4
Extremely high axial magnetic fields above the gigagauss (GG) level are supposed to exist in neutron stars, which may be a one of the critical parameters for their internal structu…
Coherently Enhanced Axion-Photon Conversion via Seeded Photons for Short-Pulse Axion Detection
Xiangyan An, Min Chen, Jianglai Liu +7
We propose a seeded axion-photon conversion scheme to enhance the sensitivity of light-shining-through-a-wall (LSW) experiments for axion detection, where the axions are generated…
Generation of high power spatially-structured laser pulses via forward Raman amplification in plasma
Zhi-Yu Lei, Su-Ming Weng, Min Chen +2
Spatially-structured light with tunable intensity, wavelength, and spatiotemporal profiles has demonstrated significant potentials for fundamental and applied science, including th…
