Impact of electron trapping on stimulated Raman scattering under incoherent broadband laser light in homogeneous plasma
David Rhys Blackman, Vladimir Tikhonchuk, Ondrej Klimo +1
Backward stimulated Raman scattering is a three-wave coupling instability requiring the matching of an incoming pump light wave to a scattered light wave and electron plasma wave.…
Theory and simulations of radiation friction induced enhancement of laser-driven longitudinal fields
E G Gelfer, A M Fedotov, S Weber
We consider the generation of a quasistatic longitudinal electric field by intense laser pulses propagating in a transparent plasma with radiation friction taken into account. For…
Laser Ion Acceleration from Mass-Limited Targets with Preplasma
K. V. Lezhnin, F. F. Kamenets, T. Zh. Esirkepov +4
The interaction of high intensity laser radiation with mass-limited target exhibits significant enhancement of the ion acceleration when the target is surrounded by an underdense p…
Electron dynamics, gamma and electron-positron production by colliding laser pulses
M. Jirka, O. Klimo, S. V. Bulanov +5
The dynamics of an electron bunch irradiated by two focused colliding super-intense laser pulses and the resulting gamma and electron-positron production are studied. Due to attrac…
Anomalous Self-Generated Electrostatic Fields in Nanosecond Laser-Plasma Interaction
L. Lancia, M. Grech, S. Weber +15
Electrostatic (E) fields associated with the interaction of a well-controlled, high-power, nanosecond laser pulse with an underdense plasma are diagnosed by proton radiography. Usi…
Coherent forward stimulated Brillouin scattering of a spatially incoherent laser beam in a plasma and its effect on beam spray
M. Grech, G. Riazuelo, D. Pesme +2
A statistical model for forward stimulated Brillouin scattering (FSBS) is developed for a spatially incoherent, monochromatic, laser beam propagating in a plasma. A threshold for t…
