Super-ponderomotive electron acceleration in blowout plasma heated by multi-picosecond relativistic intensity laser pulse

Sadaoki Kojima, Masayasu Hata, Natsumi Iwata +25

The dependence of the mean kinetic energy of laser-accelerated electrons on the laser intensity, so-called ponderomotive scaling, was derived theoretically with consideration of th…

Magnetized Fast Isochoric Laser Heating for Efficient Creation of Ultra-High-Energy-Density States

Shohei Sakata, Seungho Lee, Tomoyuki Johzaki +36

The quest for the inertial confinement fusion (ICF) ignition is a grand challenge, as exemplified by extraordinary large laser facilities. Fast isochoric heating of a pre-compresse…

Laser-ion acceleration via anomalous electron heating

A. Yogo, K. Mima, N. Iwata +23

Using a kilojoule class laser, we demonstrate for the first time that high-contrast picosecond pulses are advantageous for ion acceleration. We show that a laser pulse with optimum…

X-ray Astronomy in the Laboratory with a Miniature Compact Object Produced by Laser-Driven Implosion

Shinsuke Fujioka, Hideaki Takabe, Norimasa Yamamoto +16

Laboratory spectroscopy of non-thermal equilibrium plasmas photoionized by intense radiation is a key to understanding compact objects, such as black holes, based on astronomical o…
