Ultrashort Pulse Train Generation on a 100TW Laser Beamline Using a Delay Mask After the Final Focusing Optics
David Gregocki, Federica Baffigi, Lorenzo Fulgentini +2
Experimental results aimed at demonstrating the feasibility of a two-section delay mask for the generation of ultrashort pulse trains are reported. Based on the initial simulation…
Observation and modelling of Stimulated Raman Scattering driven by an optically smoothed laser beam in experimental conditions relevant for Shock Ignition
G. Cristoforetti, S. Huller, P. Koester +20
We report results and modelling of an experiment performed at the TAW Vulcan laser facility, aimed at investigating laser-plasma interaction in conditions which are of interest for…
Enhanced laser-driven proton acceleration via improved fast electron heating in a controlled pre-plasma
L. A. Gizzi, E. Boella, L. Labate +10
The interaction of ultraintense laser pulses with solids is largely affected by the plasma gradient at the vacuum-solid interface, which modifies the absorption and ultimately, con…
Light Ion Accelerating Line (L3IA): Test Experiment at ILIL-PW
L. A. Gizzi, F. Baffigi, F. Brandi +11
The construction of a novel Laser driven Light Ions Acceleration Line(L3IA) is progressing rapidly towards the operation, following the recent upgrade of the ILIL-PW laser facility…
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…
