Ion-motion-driven enhancement of energy coupling and stability in relativistic laser-microchannel interaction
K. Weichman, M. VanDusen-Gross, G. Bruhaug +5
For sufficiently short relativistic-intensity laser pulses, the disparity in time scales for electron and ion motion causes ions to behave as a fixed, neutralizing background. As t…

Joule-Class Pulsed THz Sources from Microchannel Targets
G. Bruhaug, H. G. Rinderknecht, K. Weichman +9
Inference of joule-class THz radiation sources from microchannel targets driven with hundreds of joule, picosecond lasers is reported. THz sources of this magnitude are useful for…
