Formation of optical bullets in laser-driven plasma bubble accelerators.
Electron density bubbles--wake structures generated in plasma of density n(e) approximately 10(19) cm(-3) by the light pressure of intense ultrashort laser pulses--are shown to reshape weak copropagating probe pulses into optical "bullets." The bullets are reconstructed using frequency-domain interferometric techniques in order to visualize bubble formation. Bullets are confined in three dimens...
متن کاملTransition from plasma-driven to Kerr-driven laser filamentation.
While filaments are generally interpreted as a dynamic balance between Kerr focusing and plasma defocusing, the role of the higher-order Kerr effect (HOKE) is actively debated as a potentially dominant defocusing contribution to filament stabilization. In a pump-probe experiment supported by numerical simulations, we demonstrate the transition between two distinct filamentation regimes at 800 n...
متن کاملNeutrino Emissivity of Dense Stars
The neutrino emissivity of compact stars is investigated in this work. We consider stars consisting of nuclear as well as quark matter for this purpose. Different models are used to calculate the composition of nuclear and quark matter and the neutrino emissivity. Depending on the model under consideration, the neutrino emissivity of nuclear as well as quark matter varies over a wide range. We ...
متن کاملDense monoenergetic proton beams from chirped laser-plasma interaction.
Interaction of a frequency-chirped laser pulse with single protons and a hydrogen gas target is studied analytically and by means of particle-in-cell simulations, respectively. The feasibility of generating ultraintense (10(7) particles per bunch) and phase-space collimated beams of protons (energy spread of about 1%) is demonstrated. Phase synchronization of the protons and the laser field, gu...
متن کاملDense-plasma Dynamics during Pulsed Laser Annealing
The flow of energy from the laser to the lattice during pulsed laser annealing of Si is examined, with particular attention paid to the influence of the dense'plasma of hot, photoexcited carriers on-the manner in which this energy transfer occurs. Consideration of carrier thermalization and recombination at high carrier densities suggests that under certain conditions carrier diffusion may incr...
