Fast proton bunch generation in the interaction of ultraintense laser pulses with high-density plasmas

Energetic proton acceleration from concave targets, the fronts of which were irradiated with 40 fs laser pulses with an intensity of 10 W/cm, has been studied as a function of the depth of the concave shape. Three kinds of targets, a triangular concave target, a circular concave target and a parabolic concave target are considered. When the depth of the concave shape was varied, the peak proton...

Quasi monoenergetic electron bunch generation by frequency variation laser pulse in magnetized plasma

The effect of the frequency variation of laser pulse in uniform magnetized plasma is considered in onedimensional laser wakefield acceleration and carried out particle simulation. It is shown that wakefield amplitude is increased threefold for the negative Gaussian chirped laser pulse in the magnetized plasma. In our simulation, electrons with initial energy about 0.3 MeV with initial energy sp...

High harmonic generation in relativistic laser–plasma interaction

High harmonics generated due to the scattering of relativistic electrons from high intensity laser light is studied. The experiments are carried out with an Nd:Glass laser system with a peak intensity of 2310 W cm in underdense plasma. It is shown that, at high intensities, when the normalized electric field approaches unity, in addition to the conventional atomic harmonics from bound electrons...
