A generalized massively parallel ultra-high order FFT-based Maxwell solver
Haithem Kallala, Jean-Luc Vay, Henri Vincenti
Dispersion-free ultra-high order FFT-based Maxwell solvers have recently proven to be paramount to a large range of applications, including the high-fidelity modeling of high-inten…
Achieving extreme light intensities using relativistic plasma mirrors
Henri Vincenti
In this letter, cutting-edge 3D Particle-In-Cell simulations are used to demonstrate that so-called relativistic plasma mirrors irradiated by PetaWatt (PW) lasers and naturally cur…
Identification of coupling mechanisms between ultraintense laser light and dense plasmas
L. Chopineau, A. Leblanc, G. Blaclard +7
The interaction of intense laser beams with plasmas created on solid targets involves a rich non-linear physics. Because such dense plasmas are reflective for laser light, the coup…
On the physics of electron ejection from laser-irradiated overdense plasmas
Maxence Thévenet, Henri Vincenti, Jérôme Faure
Using 1D and 2D PIC simulations, we describe and model the backward ejection of electron bunches when a laser pulse reflects off an overdense plasma with a sharp density gradient o…
