Sign reversal in magnetic field amplification by relativistic laser-driven microtube implosions
K. Weichman, M. Murakami, A. P. L. Robinson +1
We demonstrate and explain the surprising phenomenon of sign reversal in magnetic field amplification by the laser-driven implosion of a structured target. Relativistically intense…
Strong surface magnetic field generation in relativistic short pulse laser-plasma interaction with an applied seed magnetic field
Kathleen Weichman, Alexander P. L. Robinson, Masakatsu Murakami +1
While plasma often behaves diamagnetically, we demonstrate that the laser irradiation of a thin opaque target with an embedded target-transverse seed magnetic field $B_\mathrm{seed…
Birefringence in thermally anisotropic relativistic plasmas and its impact on laser-plasma interactions
A. Arefiev, D. Stark, T. Toncian +1
One of the paradigm-shifting phenomena triggered in laser-plasma interactions at relativistic intensities is the so-called relativistic transparency. As the electrons become heated…
