Laser Waveguides in Capillary Discharge Plasma
The article sums up contemporary experiments and results in the field of a femtosecond laser pulse waveguiding in capillary discharge plasma. The main principles are described and the most important examples of the works on the waveguiding and hybridly pumped soft x-ray lasers are mentioned. In general the future steps for creation of a new apparatus for hybridly pumped soft x-ray laser at FNSP...
متن کاملGuiding of intense laser beams in highly ionized plasma columns generated by a fast capillary discharge.
We have demonstrated the guiding of laser pulses with peak intensities up to 2.2 x 10(17) W/cm(2) in a 5.5 cm long plasma column containing highly charged Ar ions generated by a fast capillary discharge. A rapid discharge-driven hydrodynamic compression guides progressively lower order modes through a plasma with increasing density and degree of ionization, until the guide collapses on axis. Th...
متن کاملZ-pinch Discharge in Laser Produced Plasma
Z-pinch effects in a laser produced aluminium plasma were investigated with a relatively low current fast coaxial electrical discharge. The ion flux in the laser produced plasma (LPP) was monitored with a Langmuir ion probe and the line density was controlled by using an aperture to select the portion of the LPP which enters the discharge cell. The Zpinch dynamics were recorded using time-resol...

Title of Document: STUDIES OF SPECTRAL MODIFICATION IN INTENSE LASER PULSE-PLASMA INTERACTIONS Wenxi Zhu, Doctor of Philosophy, 2013 Directed By: Professor Thomas M. Antonsen Jr., Physics Laser pulses propagating through plasma undergo spectral broadening through local energy exchange with driven plasma waves. During propagation, a high power laser pulse drives large amplitude plasma waves, dep...
متن کاملIntense laser pulse amplification using Raman backscatter in plasma channels
It has been proposed that the Raman backscatter interaction in a plasma can be used to amplify ultra-intense laser pulses. To accomplish this, energy is transferred from a long drive pulse at frequency ωpump to an intense seed pulse at frequency ωseed, with a Langmuir plasma wave at frequency wp mediating the transfer; the frequencies are chosen to satisfy the resonant condition ωp = ωpump −ωse...
