Laser plasma material interactions

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2004
Surface treatment by means of pulsed laser beams in reactive atmospheres is an attractive technique to enhance the surface features, such as corrosion and wear resistance or the hardness. Many carbides and nitrides play an important role for technological applications, requiring the mentioned property improvements. Here we present a new promising fast,

Diagnostics of Laser-Plasma Interactions

2013
The field of laser-plasma diagnostics is large, and is certainly too big to be covered fully in a short article. Here, we concentrate on a number of diagnostics which are of relevance to two areas of significant current interest, namely (1) relativistic laser-plasma interactions, and (2) hohlraum-driven inertial confinement fusion.

Relativistic Laser-Plasma Interactions

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2009
Ever since the much acclaimed paper of Akhiezer and Polovin [367], plasma theorists have been attempting to comprehend complex dynamics related to the propagation of high and ultra-high intensity electromagnetic (EM) radiation through a plasma.

The transient electrodynamic forces at laser–plasma interaction

Physics of Fluids, 1985
In the discussion of the concerning of the transient terms of the nonlinear (ponderomotive) forces of laser–plasma interaction, the recent result by Zeidler et al. [Phys. Fluids 28, 372 (1985)] can be used to confirm the strength of Schlüter’s term and to provide an analogy to conclude a more general transient term.

Investigation of Laser Plasma Interactions

2021
Both short and long pulse laser plasma interactions are investigated by theoreti- cal analysis and modern computational techniques. An extensive set of simulations of short pulse laser plasma based particle accelerators are performed with the aim of improving performance and diagnostics of the accelerators.

Relativistic Laser–Plasma Interaction

2010
Sporadically, relativistic energies have been considered already in the foregoing chapters. As the laser flux density in the near infrared and visible long wavelength regime exceeds \(I\simeq 10^{18}\,{\textrm{Wcm}^{-2}}\), the electron quiver energy assumes relativistic values. A brief presentation of basic relativity may be useful here.

Relativistic Laser Plasma Interaction

2001
The new technique of Chirped Pulse Amplification (CPA) allows to generate laser pulses with focussed intensities far above 1018W/cm2. It has opened a new branch of relativistic plasma physics.1 At intensities beyond 1018W/cm2, now available from table-top systems, the laser pulses self-focus in plasma channels, a few wavelengths in diameter, and ...

Proton Shock Acceleration in Laser-Plasma Interactions

Physical Review Letters, 2004
The formation of strong, high Mach number (2-3), electrostatic shocks by laser pulses incident on overdense plasma slabs is observed in one- and two-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations, for a wide range of intensities, pulse durations, target thicknesses, and densities.

Nonlinear laser–plasma interactions

Reviews of Modern Plasma Physics, 2017
Soon after lasers were invented, there was tremendous curiosity on the nonlinear phenomena which would result in their interaction with a fully ionized plasma. Apart from the basic interest, it was realized that it could be used for the achievement of nuclear fusion in the laboratory.
