On the Role of Atomic Binding Forces and Warm-Dense-Matter Physics in the Modeling of mJ-Class Laser-Induced Surface Ablation
Asher Davidson, George Petrov, Daniel Gordon +1
Ultrafast laser heating of electrons on a metal surface breaks the pressure equilibrium within the material, thus initiating ablation. The stasis of a room-temperature metal result…
Special unitary particle pusher for extreme fields
Daniel Gordon, Bahman Hafizi
An exact momentum update useful for particle codes was previously given. The expressions involved were unwieldy. By treating the momentum as a representation of SU(2)xSU(2) instead…
Laser-Plasma Interactions Enabled by Emerging Technologies
J. P. Palastro, F. Albert, B. Albright +51
An overview from the past and an outlook for the future of fundamental laser-plasma interactions research enabled by emerging laser systems.
Backward Raman Amplification in the Long-wavelength Infrared
L. A. Johnson, D. F. Gordon, J. P. Palastro +1
The wealth of work in backward Raman amplification in plasma has focused on the extreme intensity limit, however backward Raman amplification may also provide an effective and prac…
5.5-7.5 MeV Proton generation by a moderate intensity ultra-short laser interaction with H2O nano-wire targets
A. Zigler, T. Palchan, N. Bruner +8
We report on the first generation of 5.5-7.5 MeV protons by a moderate intensity short-pulse laser (4.5 \times 1017 W/cm^2, 50 fsec) interacting with H2O nano-wires (snow) deposite…
