Journal ArticleDOI
Near-100 MeV protons via a laser-driven transparency-enhanced hybrid acceleration scheme
A. Higginson,Ross Gray,M. King,R. J. Dance,S. D. R. Williamson,N. M. H. Butler,Robbie Wilson,R. Capdessus,Chris Armstrong,Chris Armstrong,James Green,Steve Hawkes,Steve Hawkes,P. Martin,Wei Wei,S. R. Mirfayzi,Xiaohui Yuan,Satyabrata Kar,Marco Borghesi,R. J. Clarke,David Neely,David Neely,Paul McKenna +22 more
TL;DR: A hybrid acceleration scheme based on the relativistic induced transparency mechanism using linearly polarised laser interaction with foil targets is demonstrated and its future implication in using high power lasers is explored.
Journal ArticleDOI
Observation of a fast electron beam emitted along the surface of a target irradiated by intense femtosecond laser pulses.
Yutong Li,Xiaohui Yuan,Mingfeng Xu,Z. Y. Zheng,Zheng-Ming Sheng,Min Chen,Yong Ma,Wenxi Liang,Q. Z. Yu,Yugang Zhang,F. Liu,Wang Zengqiang,Zhiyi Wei,Wei Zhao,Zhan Jin,Jie Zhang +15 more
TL;DR: Numerical simulations reveal that the electron beam is formed due to the confinement of the surface quasistatic electromagnetic fields, of interest for potential applications of fast electron beams and deep understanding of the cone-target physics in the fast ignition related experiments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of front surface plasma expansion on proton acceleration in ultraintense laser irradiation of foil targets
Paul McKenna,David Carroll,Olle Lundh,F. Nürnberg,K. Markey,S. Bandyopadhyay,Dimitri Batani,R. G. Evans,R. Jafer,Satyabrata Kar,David Neely,D.A. Pepler,Mark N. Quinn,R. Redaelli,Markus Roth,Claes-Göran Wahlström,Xiaohui Yuan,Matthew Zepf +17 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the properties of high energy protons accelerated during ultraintense, picosecond laser-irradiation of thin foil targets as a function of preplasma expansion at the target front surface.
Journal ArticleDOI
Demonstration of Coherent Terahertz Transition Radiation from Relativistic Laser-Solid Interactions.
Guoqian Liao,Yutong Li,Yihang Zhang,Liu Hao,Xulei Ge,Su Yang,Wenqing Wei,Xiaohui Yuan,Yanqing Deng,Baojun Zhu,Zhe Zhang,Wei-Min Wang,Wei-Min Wang,Zheng-Ming Sheng,Liming Chen,Liming Chen,Xin Lu,Jinglong Ma,Xuan Wang,Jie Zhang +19 more
TL;DR: The present THz transition radiation enables not only a potential tabletop brilliant THz source, but also a novel noninvasive diagnostic for fast electron generation and transport in laser-plasma interactions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Laser-driven ultrafast field propagation on solid surfaces.

TL;DR: The interaction of a 3x10 W/cm;{2} laser pulse with a metallic wire has been investigated using proton radiography and the transient field measured is interpreted as a charge-neutralizing disturbance propagated away from the interaction region as a result of the permanent loss of a small fraction of the laser-accelerated hot electron population to vacuum.
