| 1 | Highly-collimated, high-charge and broadband MeV electron beams produced by magnetizing solids irradiated by high-intensity lasers显示文摘Laser irradiation of solid targets can drive short and high-charge relativistic electron bunches over micron-scale acceleration gradients.However,for a long time,this technique was not considered a viable means of electron acceleration due to the large intrinsic divergence(∼50°half-angle)of the electrons.Recently,a reduction in this divergence to 10°–20°half-angle has been obtained,using plasma-based magnetic fields or very high contrast laser pulses to extract the electrons into the vacuum.Here we show that we can further improve the electron beam collimation,down to∼1.5°half-angle,of a high-charge(6 nC)beam,and in a highly reproducible manner,while using standard stand-alone 100 TW-class laser pulses.This is obtained by embedding the laser-target interaction in an external,large-scale(cm),homogeneous,extremely stable,and high-strength(20 T)magnetic field that is independent of the laser.With upcoming multi-PW,high repetition-rate lasers,this technique opens the door to achieving even higher charges(>100 nC). | S.Bolaños J.Beard G.Revet S.N.Chen S.Pikuz E.Filippov M.Safronova M.Cerchez O.Willi M.Starodubtsev J.Fuchs | 2019 | Matter and Radiation at Extremes2019，4，4： | 0 |
| 2 | Time evolution of stimulated Raman scattering and two-plasmon decay at laser intensities relevant for shock ignition in a hot plasma显示文摘Laser–plasma interaction(LPI)at intensities 1015–1016 W·cm^-2 is dominated by parametric instabilities which can be responsible for a significant amount of non-collisional absorption and generate large fluxes of high-energy nonthermal electrons.Such a regime is of paramount importance for inertial confinement fusion(ICF)and in particular for the shock ignition scheme.In this paper we report on an experiment carried out at the Prague Asterix Laser System(PALS)facility to investigate the extent and time history of stimulated Raman scattering(SRS)and two-plasmon decay(TPD)instabilities,driven by the interaction of an infrared laser pulse at an intensity^1.2×1016 W·cm^-2 with a^100μm scalelength plasma produced from irradiation of a flat plastic target.The laser pulse duration(300 ps)and the high value of plasma temperature(~4 ke V)expected from hydrodynamic simulations make these results interesting for a deeper understanding of LPI in shock ignition conditions.Experimental results show that absolute TPD/SRS,driven at a quarter of the critical density,and convective SRS,driven at lower plasma densities,are well separated in time,with absolute instabilities driven at early times of interaction and convective backward SRS emerging at the laser peak and persisting all over the tail of the pulse.Side-scattering SRS,driven at low plasma densities,is also clearly observed.Experimental results are compared to fully kinetic large-scale,two-dimensional simulations.Particle-in-cell results,beyond reproducing the framework delineated by the experimental measurements,reveal the importance of filamentation instability in ruling the onset of SRS and stimulated Brillouin scattering instabilities and confirm the crucial role of collisionless absorption in the LPI energy balance. | G.Cristoforetti L.Antonelli D.Mancelli S.Atzeni F.Baffigi F.Barbato D.Batani G.Boutoux F.D'Amato J.Dostal R.Dudzak E.Filippov Y.J.Gu L.Juha O.Klimo M.Krus S.Malko A.S.Martynenko Ph.Nicolai V.Ospina S.Pikuz O.Renner J.Santos V.T.Tikhonchuk J.Trela S.Viciani L.Volpe S.Weber L.A.Gizzi | 2019 | High Power Laser Science and Engineering2019，7，3： | 0 |
| 3 | Characterization and performance of the Apollon short-focal-area facility following its commissioning at 1 PW level显示文摘We present the results of the first commissioning phase of the short-focal-length area of the Apollon laser facility(located in Saclay,France),which was performed with the first available laser beam(F2),scaled to a nominal power of 1 PW.Under the conditions that were tested,this beam delivered on-target pulses of 10 J average energy and 24 fs duration.Several diagnostics were fielded to assess the performance of the facility.The on-target focal spot and its spatial stability,the temporal intensity profile prior to the main pulse,and the resulting density gradient formed at the irradiated side of solid targets have been thoroughly characterized,with the goal of helping users design future experiments.Emissions of energetic electrons,ions,and electromagnetic radiation were recorded,showing good laser-to-target coupling efficiency and an overall performance comparable to that of similar international facilities.This will be followed in 2022 by a further commissioning stage at the multipetawatt level. | K.Burdonov A.Fazzini V.Lelasseux J.Albrecht P.Antici Y.Ayoul A.Beluze D.Cavanna T.Ceccotti M.Chabanis A.Chaleil S.N.Chen Z.Chen F.Consoli M.Cuciuc X.Davoine J.P.Delaneau E.d’Humieres J.-L.Dubois C.Evrard E.Filippov A.Freneaux P.Forestier-Colleoni L.Gremillet V.Horny L.Lancia L.Lecherbourg N.Lebas A.Leblanc W.Ma L.Martin F.Negoita J.-L.Paillard D.Papadopoulos F.Perez S.Pikuz G.Qi F.Quere L.Ranc P.-A.Soderstrom M.Sciscio S.Sun S.Vallieres P.Wang W.Yao F.Mathieu P.Audebert J.Fuchs | 2021 | Matter and Radiation at Extremes2021，6，6： | 0 |
