Laser astrophysics experiment on the amplification of magnetic fields by shock-induced interfacial instabilities
Takayoshi Sano, Shohei Tamatani, Kazuki Matsuo +19
Laser experiments are becoming established as a new tool for astronomical research that complements observations and theoretical modeling. Localized strong magnetic fields have bee…
Enhancement of ablative Rayleigh-Taylor instability growth by thermal conduction suppression in a magnetic field
Kazuki Matsuo, Takayoshi Sano, Hideo Nagatomo +5
Ablative Rayleigh-Taylor instability growth was investigated to elucidate the fundamental physics of thermal conduction suppression in a magnetic field. Experiments found that unst…
Peta-Pascal Pressure Driven by Fast Isochoric Heating with Multi-Picosecond Intense Laser Pulse
Kazuki Matsuo, Naoki Higashi, Natsumi Iwata +31
Fast isochoric laser heating is a scheme to heat a matter with relativistic-intensity ( 10 W/cm) laser pulse or X-ray free electron laser pulse. The fast isochoric la…
Hard particle spectra of galactic X-ray sources by relativistic magnetic reconnection in laser lab
K. F. F. Law, Y. Abe, A. Morace +18
Magnetic reconnection is a process whereby magnetic field lines in different directions "reconnect" with each other, resulting in the rearrangement of magnetic field topology toget…
Super-ponderomotive electron acceleration in blowout plasma heated by multi-picosecond relativistic intensity laser pulse
Sadaoki Kojima, Masayasu Hata, Natsumi Iwata +25
The dependence of the mean kinetic energy of laser-accelerated electrons on the laser intensity, so-called ponderomotive scaling, was derived theoretically with consideration of th…
Whispering gallery effect in relativistic optics
Y. Abe, K. -F. -F. Law, Ph. Korneev +17
A relativistic laser pulse, confined in a cylindrical target, performs multiple scattering along the target surface. The confinement property of the target results in a very effcie…
Magnetized Fast Isochoric Laser Heating for Efficient Creation of Ultra-High-Energy-Density States
Shohei Sakata, Seungho Lee, Tomoyuki Johzaki +36
The quest for the inertial confinement fusion (ICF) ignition is a grand challenge, as exemplified by extraordinary large laser facilities. Fast isochoric heating of a pre-compresse…
Laser electron acceleration on curved surfaces
Ph. Korneev, Y. Abe, K. -F. -F. Law +19
Electron acceleration by relativistically intense laser beam propagating along a curved surface allows to split softly the accelerated electron bunch and the laser beam. The presen…
Laser-ion acceleration via anomalous electron heating
A. Yogo, K. Mima, N. Iwata +23
Using a kilojoule class laser, we demonstrate for the first time that high-contrast picosecond pulses are advantageous for ion acceleration. We show that a laser pulse with optimum…
