Hot electrons generated by laser-matter interaction emit X-rays through bremsstrahlung mechanism. Precise knowledge of the energy distribution and temperature scaling of hot electrons and X-rays is crucial for exploiting laser energy in many applications such as sources of X-rays, radiography of dense plasma, photo-nuclear studies and fast ignition.
The scaling of hot electron and...
X-ray lasers such as XFEL produce dense plasmas with out-of-equilibrium electron populations during interaction with matter. Once the pulse is over, the system returns to equilibrium in a few tens of fs, but the emission of radiation during the interaction can reveal features of the non-equilibrium electronic population during the interaction. We present numerical simulation results of the...

This contribution should analyze the impact of picosecond ramp of ultrashort laser pulse on target normal sheath acceleration (TNSA) of ions as well as on the propagation of ultrashort laser pulse through the so-called plasma shutter (which is an ultrathin solid foil or a membrane used for the improvement...
Relativistic laser-plasma driven high energy (MeV) photon and particle generation is an attractive basis for many applications, but still a challenging and not well understood topic within the laser-plasma physics. The relativistic laser-matter interaction was more than two decades investigated in the framework of different aspects of laser-plasma creation. One of these is the generation of...
