Visualizing Plasmons and Ultrafast Kinetic Instabilities in Laser-Driven Solids using X-ray Scattering
Paweł Ordyna, Carsten Bähtz, Erik Brambrink +27
Ultra-intense lasers that ionize and accelerate electrons in solids to near the speed of light can lead to kinetic instabilities that alter the laser absorption and subsequent elec…
Probing the dynamics of solid density micro-wire targets after ultra-intense laser irradiation using a free-electron laser
Thomas Kluge, Michael Bussmann, Eric Galtier +22
In this paper, we present an experiment that explores the plasma dynamics of a 7 micron diameter carbon wire after being irradiated with a near-relativistic-intensity short pulse l…
Probing ultrafast laser plasma processes inside solids with resonant small-angle X-ray scattering
Lennart Gaus, Lothar Bischoff, Michael Bussmann +33
Extreme states of matter exist throughout the universe e.g. inside planetary cores, stars or astrophysical jets. Such conditions are generated in the laboratory in the interaction…
Nanoscale subsurface dynamics of solids upon high-intensity laser irradiation observed by femtosecond grazing-incidence x-ray scattering
Lisa Randolph, Mohammadreza Banjafar, Thomas R. Preston +28
Observing ultrafast laser-induced structural changes in nanoscale systems is essential for understanding the dynamics of intense light-matter interactions. For laser intensities on…
Observation of ultrafast solid-density plasma dynamics using femtosecond X-ray pulses from a free-electron laser
Thomas Kluge, Melanie Rödel, Josefine Metzkes +23
The complex physics of the interaction between short pulse high intensity lasers and solids is so far hardly accessible by experiments. As a result of missing experimental capabili…
Using XFELs for Probing of Complex Interaction Dynamics of Ultra-Intense Lasers with Solid Matter
Thomas Kluge, Christian Gutt, Lingen Huang +4
We demonstrate the potential of X-ray free-electron lasers (XFEL) to advancethe understanding of complex plasma dynamics by allowing for the first time nanometer and femtosecond re…
