SRS-SBS competition and nonlinear laser energy absorption in a high temperature plasma
S. A. Shekhanov, V. T. Tikhonchuk
Stimulated Raman and Brillouin scattering of laser radiation in a plasma corona are outstanding issues for the inertial confinement fusion. Stimulated Raman scattering may produce…
Over-critical sharp-gradient plasma slab produced by the collision of laser-induced blast-waves in a gas jet; Application to high-energy proton acceleration
J. -R. Marquès, P. Loiseau, J. Bonvalet +10
The generation of thin and high density plasma slabs at high repetition rate is a key issue for ultra-high intensity laser applications. We present a scheme to create such plasma s…
Bremsstrahlung emission and plasma characterization driven by moderately relativistic laser-plasma interactions
Sushil Singh, Chris D. Armstrong, Ning Kang +22
Relativistic electrons generated by the interaction of petawatt-class short laser pulses with solid targets can be used to generate bright X-rays via bremsstrahlung. The efficiency…
Electromagnetic pulse emission from target holders during short-pulse laser interactions
Damien F. G. Minenna, Alexandre Poyé, Philip Bradford +2
For the first time, a global model of electromagnetic pulse (EMP) emission connects charge separation in the laser target to quantitative measurements of the electromagnetic field.…
Kinetic plasma waves carrying orbital angular momentum
D. Blackman, R. Nuter, Ph. Korneev +1
The structure of Langmuir plasma waves carrying a finite angular orbital momentum is revised in the paraxial optics approximation. It is shown that the kinetic effects related to h…
AWBS kinetic modeling of electrons with nonlocal Ohms law in plasmas relevant to inertial confinement fusion
M. Holec, P. Loiseau, A. Debayle +8
The interaction of lasers with plasmas very often leads to nonlocal transport conditions, where the classical hydrodynamic model fails to describe important microscopic physics rel…
