Laser-Driven Rayleigh-Taylor Instability: Plasmonics Effects and Three-Dimensional Structures
Andrea Sgattoni, Stefano Sinigardi, Luca Fedeli +2
The acceleration of dense targets driven by the radiation pressure of high-intensity lasers leads to a Rayleigh-Taylor instability (RTI) with rippling of the interaction surface. U…

High Energy Gain in Three-Dimensional Simulations of Light Sail Acceleration
Andrea Sgattoni, Stefano Sinigardi, Andrea Macchi
The dynamics of radiation pressure acceleration in the relativistic light sail regime are analysed by means of large scale, three-dimensional (3D) particle-in-cell simulations. Dif…
