Enhancement of maximum attainable ion energy in the radiation pressure acceleration regime using a guiding structure
S. S. Bulanov, E. Esarey, C. B. Schroeder +5
Radiation Pressure Acceleration relies on high intensity laser pulse interacting with solid target to obtain high maximum energy, quasimonoenergetic ion beams. Either extremely hig…
Prepulse and amplified spontaneous emission effects on the interaction of a petawatt class laser with thin solid targets
Timur Zh. Esirkepov, James K. Koga, Atsushi Sunahara +17
When a finite contrast petawatt laser pulse irradiates a micron-thick foil, a prepulse (including amplified spontaneous emission) creates a preplasma, where an ultrashort relativis…
Nonlinear Plasma Wave in Magnetized Plasmas
Sergei V. Bulanov, Timur Zh. Esirkepov, Masaki Kando +4
Nonlinear axisymmetric cylindrical plasma oscillations in magnetized collisionless plasmas are a model for the electron fluid collapse on the axis behind an ultrashort relativisica…
On extreme field limits in high power laser matter interactions: radiation dominant regimes in high intensity electromagnetic wave interaction with electrons
Sergei V. Bulanov, Timur Zh. Esirkepov, Masaki Kando +6
We discuss the key important regimes of electromagnetic field interaction with charged particles. Main attention is paid to the nonlinear Thomson/Compton scattering regime with the…
