Optical Probing of Ultrafast Laser-Induced Solid-to-Overdense-Plasma Transitions
Yasmina Azamoum, Georg Alexander Becker, Sebastian Keppler +11
Understanding the target dynamics during its interaction with a relativistic ultrashort laser pulse is a challenging fundamental multi-physics problem involving at least atomic and…
Stimulated-Raman-scattering amplification of attosecond XUV pulses with pulse-train pumps and application to local in-depth plasma-density measurement
Andréas Sundström, Mickael Grech, István Pusztai +1
We present a scheme for amplifying an extreme-ultraviolet (XUV) seed isolated attosecond pulse via stimulated Raman scattering of a pulse-train pump. At sufficient seed and pump in…
A Task Programming Implementation for the Particle in Cell Code Smilei
Francesco Massimo, Mathieu Lobet, Julien Derouillat +5
An implementation of the electromagnetic Particle in Cell loop in the code Smilei using task programming is presented. Through OpenMP, the macro-particles operations are formulated…
Electron acceleration by laser plasma wedge interaction
S. Marini, P. S. Kleij, M. Grech +2
A new electron acceleration mechanism is identified that develops when a relativistically intense laser irradiates the wedge of an over-dense plasma. This induces a diffracted elec…
Key parameters for surface plasma wave excitation in the ultra-high intensity regime
S. Marini, P. S. Kleij, F. Amiranoff +3
Ultra-short high-power lasers can deliver extreme light intensities ( W/cm and s) and drive large amplitude Surface Plasma Wave (SPW) at over-dense plas…
Impact of the laser spatio-temporal shape on Breit-Wheeler pair production
A. Mercuri-Baron, M. Grech, F. Niel +4
The forthcoming generation of multi-petawatt lasers opens the way to abundant pair production by the nonlinear Breit-Wheeler process, i.e., the decay of a photon into an electron-p…
