Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of the inverted double layers produced by nonlinear forces in a laser-produced plasma
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the interaction of high-intensity light with an expanding plasma surface produces a positive plasma cloud followed by a negative plasma cloud, which is the result of the nonlinear (ponderomotive) force.
Journal ArticleDOI
First direct electron and ion fluid computation of high electrostatic fields in dense inhomogeneous plasmas with subsequent nonlinear laser interaction
Paraskevas Lalousis,H. Hora +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a hydrodynamic study of the electrostatic phenomena in plasmas has been performed, where the numerically observed oscillations of the fields and electron fluid and the waves and their damping by collisions have been evaluated and an analytical model has been derived to study damping of Coulomb collisions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fusion energy using avalanche increased boron reactions for block-ignition by ultrahigh power picosecond laser pulses
Heinrich Hora,Georg Korn,Lorenzo Giuffrida,Daniele Margarone,Antonino Picciotto,Josef Krasa,Karel Jungwirth,Jiri Ullschmied,Paraskevas Lalousis,Shalom Eliezer,George H. Miley,Stavros Moustaizis,Gerard Mourou +12 more
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that secondary avalanche reactions are happening and confirming the results of high-gain, neutron-free, clean, safe, low-cost, and long-term available energy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Shock mechanisms by ultrahigh laser accelerated plasma blocks in solid density targets for fusion
Paraskevas Lalousis,Heinrich Hora,Shalom Eliezer,Jose-Maria Martinez-Val,Stavros Moustaizis,George H. Miley,Gerard Mourou +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a numerical approach is presented where genuine two-fluid hydrodynamics is used in order to study the shock mechanism of the generated fusion flame, its propagation velocities above 1000 km / s, and fusion efficiencies for deuterium-tritium needing an energy flux of 10 8 J / cm 2.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ultrahigh acceleration of plasma by picosecond terawatt laser pulses for fast ignition of fusion
TL;DR: In this paper, the side-on ignition of uncompressed fusion fuel by the ultrahigh accelerated plasma blocks is studied for the first time by using the genuine two-fluid hydrodynamics.
