Electron pulse train accelerated by a linearly polarized Laguerre-Gaussian laser beam
Yin Shi, David R Blackman, Ping Zhu +1
A linearly polarized Laguerre-Gaussian (LP-LG) laser beam with a twist index has field structure that fundamentally differs from the field structure of a conventional line…
Magnetic field amplification in a laser-irradiated thin foil by return current electrons carrying orbital angular momentum
Y. Shi, K. Weichman, R. J. Kingham +1
Magnetized high energy density physics offers new opportunities for observing magnetic field-related physics for the first time in the laser-plasma context. We focus on one such ph…
Relativistic Plasma Physics in Supercritical Fields
P. Zhang, S. S. Bulanov, D. Seipt +2
Since the invention of chirped pulse amplification, which was recognized by a Nobel prize in physics in 2018, there has been a continuing increase in available laser intensity. Com…
Energy gain by laser-accelerated electrons in a strong magnetic field
A. Arefiev, Z. Gong, A. P. L. Robinson
The manuscript deals with electron acceleration by a laser pulse in a plasma with a static uniform magnetic field . The laser pulse propagates perpendicular to the magnetic fi…
Impact of ion dynamics on laser-driven electron acceleration and gamma-ray emission in structured targets at ultra-high laser intensities
T. Wang, Z. Gong, K. Chin +1
We examine the impact of the ion dynamics on laser-driven electron acceleration in an initially empty channel irradiated by an ultra-high intensity laser pulse with W…
Optimized setups for detection of Megatesla-level magnetic fields through Faraday rotation of XFEL beams
Tao Wang, Toma Toncian, Mingsheng Wei +1
A solid density target irradiated by a high-intensity laser pulse can become relativistically transparent, which then allows it to sustain an extremely strong laser-driven longitud…
