Nonlinear transmission of laser light through coronal plasma due to self-induced incoherence

A. V. Maximov, J. G. Shaw, J. P. Palastro

The success of direct laser-driven inertial confinement fusion (ICF) relies critically on the efficient coupling of laser light to plasma. At ignition scale, the absolute stimulate…

Beating Optical Turbulence Limits Using High Peak-Power Lasers

Michael H. Helle, Gregory Dicomo, Samantha Gregory +6

We experimentally demonstrate the ability of a nonlinear self-channeling beam to resist turbulence-induced spreading and scintillation. Spatio-temporal data is presented for an 850…

Photon Acceleration in a Flying Focus

A. J. Howard, D. Turnbull, A. S. Davies +3

A high-intensity laser pulse propagating through a medium triggers an ionization front that can accelerate and frequency-upshift the photons of a second pulse. The maximum upshift…

Laser Pulse Driven THz Generation via Resonant Transition Radiation in Inhomogeneous Plasmas

Chenlong Miao, John P. Palastro, Thomas M. Antonsen

An intense, short laser pulse propagating across a plasma boundary ponderomotively drives THz radiation. Full format PIC simulations and theoretical analysis are conducted to inves…
