Accurate electron beam phase-space theory for ionisation injection schemes driven by laser pulses

Paolo Tomassini, Francesco Massimo, Luca Labate +1

After the introduction of the ionization-injection scheme in Laser Wake Field Acceleration and of related high-quality electron beam generation methods as two-color or the Resonant…

Enhanced laser-driven proton acceleration via improved fast electron heating in a controlled pre-plasma

L. A. Gizzi, E. Boella, L. Labate +10

The interaction of ultraintense laser pulses with solids is largely affected by the plasma gradient at the vacuum-solid interface, which modifies the absorption and ultimately, con…

Evidence of resonant surface wave excitation in the relativistic regime through measurements of proton acceleration from grating targets

T. Ceccotti, V. Floquet, A. Sgattoni +25

The interaction of laser pulses with thin grating targets, having a periodic groove at the irradiated surface, has been experimentally investigated. Ultrahigh contrast ($\sim 10^{1…

Micron-Scale Mapping of Megagauss Magnetic Fields in Petawatt Laser-Solid Interactions

Gourab Chatterjee, Prashant Kumar Singh, A. P. L. Robinson +14

We report spatially and temporally resolved measurements of magnetic fields generated by petawatt laser-solid interactions with high spatial resolution, using optical polarimetry.…
