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…
Ion Acceleration via "Nonlinear Vacuum Heating" by the Laser Pulse Obliquely Incident on a Thin Foil Target
A. Yogo, S. V. Bulanov, M. Mori +9
Dependence of the energy of ions accelerated during interaction of the laser pulse obliquelly incident on the thin foil target on the laser polarization is studied experimentally a…
