Self-trapping and acceleration of ions in laser-driven relativistically transparent plasma
B. Liu, J. Meyer-ter-Vehn, H. Ruhl
Self-trapping and acceleration of ions in laser-driven relativistically transparent plasma are investigated with the help of particle-in-cell simulations. A theoretical model based…
Radiation friction vs ponderomotive effect
A. M. Fedotov, N. V. Elkina, E. G. Gelfer +2
The concept of ponderomotive potential is upgraded to a regime in which radiation friction becomes dominant. The radiation friction manifests itself in novel features of long-term…
Plasma surface dynamics and smoothing in the relativistic few-cycle regime
S. G. Rykovanov, H. Ruhl, J. Meyer-ter-Vehn +4
In laser-plasma interactions it is widely accepted that a non-uniform interaction surface will invariably seed hydrodynamic instabilities and a growth in the amplitude of the initi…
"Single-cycle" ionization effects in laser-matter interaction
E. Conejero Jarque, F. Cornolti, A. Macchi +1
We investigate numerically effects related to ``single-cycle'' ionization of dense matter by an ultra-short laser pulse. The strongly non-adiabatic response of electrons leads to g…
Collimated electron jets by intense laser beam-plasma surface interaction under oblique incidence
H. Ruhl, Y. Sentoku, K. Mima +2
Oblique incidence of a -polarized laser beam on a fully ionized plasma with a low density plasma corona is investigated numerically by Particle-In-Cell and Vlasov simulations in…
