Intrinsic femtosecond structure of extreme contrast harmonic pulses: influence on relativistic laser-solid interactions
C. Aparajit, Anandam Choudhary, Ankit Dulat +7
Extreme intensity contrast is considered essential for ultraintense, femtosecond laser excitation of solid targets, in particular for studies with structured or ultra-thin targets.…
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…
Ultrashort high energy electron bunches from tunable surface plasma waves driven with laser wavefront rotation
S. Marini, P. S. Kleij, F. Pisani +5
We propose to use ultra-high intensity laser pulses with wavefront rotation (WFR) to produce short, ultra-intense surface plasma waves (SPW) on grating targets for electron acceler…
Electron acceleration by relativistic surface plasmons in laser-grating interaction
Luca Fedeli, Andrea Sgattoni, Giada Cantono +9
The generation of energetic electron bunches by the interaction of a short, ultra-intense () laser pulse with "grating" targets has been investigated in…
Simple Scalings for Various Regimes of Electron Acceleration in Surface Plasma Waves
C. Riconda, M. Raynaud, T. Vialis +1
Different electron acceleration regimes in the evanescent field of a surface plasma wave are studied by considering the interaction of a test electron with the high-frequency elect…
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…
