| 1 | Plasma optics in the context of high intensity lasers显示文摘The use of plasmas provides a way to overcome the low damage threshold of classical solid-state based optical materials,which is the main limitation encountered in producing and manipulating intense and energetic laser pulses.Plasmas can directly amplify or alter the characteristics of ultra-short laser pulses via the three-wave coupling equations for parametric processes.The strong-coupling regime of Brillouin scattering(sc-SBS)is of particular interest:recent progress in this domain is presented here.This includes the role of the global phase in the spatio-temporal evolution of the three-wave coupled equations for backscattering that allows a description of the coupling dynamics and the various stages of amplification from the initial growth to the so-called self-similar regime.The understanding of the phase evolution allows control of the directionality of the energy transfer via the phase relation between the pulses.A scheme that exploits this coupling in order to use the plasma as a wave plate is also suggested. | H.Peng J.-R.Marques L.Lancia F.Amiranoff R.L.Berger S.Weber C.Riconda | 2019 | Matter and Radiation at Extremes2019，4，6： | 0 |
| 2 | Collisionless shock acceleration of protons in a plasma slab produced in a gas jet by the collision of two laser-driven hydrodynamic shockwaves显示文摘We have recently proposed a new technique of plasma tailoring by laser-driven hydrodynamic shockwaves generated on both sides of a gas jet[Marquès et al.,Phys.Plasmas 28,023103(2021)].In a continuation of this numerical work,we study experimentally the influence of the tailoring on proton acceleration driven by a high-intensity picosecond laser in three cases:without tailoring,by tailoring only the entrance side of the picosecond laser,and by tailoring both sides of the gas jet.Without tailoring,the acceleration is transverse to the laser axis,with a low-energy exponential spectrum,produced by Coulomb explosion.When the front side of the gas jet is tailored,a forward acceleration appears,which is significantly enhanced when both the front and back sides of the plasma are tailored.This forward acceleration produces higher-energy protons,with a peaked spectrum,and is in good agreement with the mechanism of collisionless shock acceleration(CSA).The spatiotemporal evolution of the plasma profile is characterized by optical shadowgraphy of a probe beam.The refraction and absorption of this beam are simulated by post-processing 3D hydrodynamic simulations of the plasma tailoring.Comparison with the experimental results allows estimation of the thickness and near-critical density of the plasma slab produced by tailoring both sides of the gas jet.These parameters are in good agreement with those required for CSA. | J.-R.Marquès L.Lancia P.Loiseau P.Forestier-Colleoni M.Tarisien E.Atukpor V.Bagnoud C.Brabetz F.Consoli J.Domange F.Hannachi P.Nicolaï M.Salvadori B.Zielbauer | 2024 | Matter and Radiation at Extremes2024，9，2： | 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 |
