Femtolasers and High-intensity Laser-matter Interactions
Contents 1. Summary Femtolasers arose owing to the mode-locking technique which allowed producing laser pulses of femtosecond duration. The invention of the chirped pulse amplification and the development of high-fluence laser gain media and large-aperture nonlinear crystals made it possible to amplify femtosecond laser pulses to unprecedented powers, in excess of petawatt. A tight focusing of ...
متن کاملEffects of nonionizing prepulses in high-intensity laser-solid interactions.
We present theoretical and experimental evidence that nonionizing prepulses with intensities as low as 10(8)-10(9) W/cm(2) can substantially alter high intensity laser-solid interactions. We show that prepulse-heating and vaporization of the target can lead to a preformed plasma once the vapor is ionized by the rising edge of the high-intensity pulse. Our results indicate that peak prepulse int...
متن کاملSymmetries,quantum Geometry, and the Fundamental Interactions
A generalized Noether’s theorem and the operational determination of a physical geometry in quantum physics are used to motivate a quantum geometry consisting of relations between quantum states that are defined by a universal group. Making these relations dynamical implies the non local effect of the fundamental interactions on the wave function, as in the Aharonov-Bohm effect and its generali...
متن کاملStudying near-relativistic collisionless shocks with high-intensity laser- plasma interactions
Collisionless shocks are pervasive in space and astrophysical plasmas and are known to be efficient particle accelerators; however, the microphysics underlying shock formation and particle acceleration is not yet fully understood. The fast progress in laser technology is bringing the study of near-relativistic collisionless shocks into the realm of laboratory plasmas. We use multi-dimensional p...
