    Notes: Results of a fully relativistic three-dimensional (3-D) single particle code, supported by a theoretical model, on direct laser acceleration of electrons in radial electric and azimuthal magnetic static fields are presented. The ponderomotive force and the longitudinal components of the laser field are taken into account in the code. The electron motion in the static fields is similar to the motion in a magnetic wiggler. At resonance, when the bounce frequency of the wiggling motion is within a few percent of the Doppler shifted laser frequency, the amplitude of transverse oscillation shows a rapid increase accompanied by a fast rise in energy and parallel momentum. For this situation, a theoretical model of energy exchange between the electrons and the laser provides reasonable estimate of energy gain. The single particle code is used in Monte Carlo simulations to study the energy distribution and angular spread of the accelerated electrons in a self-focused high intensity laser pulse interaction. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: [Auszug] Temporal probing of a number of fundamental dynamical processes requires intense pulses at femtosecond or even attosecond (1 as = 10-18 s) timescales. A frequency ‘comb’ of extreme-ultraviolet odd harmonics can easily be generated in the ...

    Notes: A method has been developed to calculate the spatial temperature distribution on the interior wall of an arbitrarily shaped cavity in which the wall elements exchange energy by means of thermal radiation. The method is based on the separation of the geometrical problem of the radiant energy exchange processes from the detailed physics of reemission from a wall element heated by thermal radiation. The reemissive properties of the interior wall are self-consistently calculated using a self-similar solution to the space- and time-dependent planar hydrodynamics equations with radiative heat conduction. As an example, the application of the method to the case of the cylindrical cavity is presented. The relevance of the model to the inertial confinement approach to fusion and its usefulness as a cavity designing tool is discussed.

    Notes: In experiments, the feasibility was demonstrated of generating multi-MeV electrons in a form of a collimated beam utilizing a table-top laser system delivering 200 fs pulses with PL=1.2 TW and 10 Hz capability. The method uses the process of relativistic self-channeling in a high-density gas jet producing electron densities in the range of 3×1019–6×1020 cm−3. In a thorough investigation, angularly resolved and absolutely calibrated electron spectra were measured and their dependence on the plasma density, laser intensity, and gas medium was studied. For the optimum electron density of ne=2×1020 cm−3 the effective temperature of the electron energy distribution and the channel length exhibit a maximum of 5 MeV and 400 μm respectively. The laser-energyto-MeV-electron efficiency is estimated to be 5%. In a second step, utilizing the multi-MeV electron beam anti-particles, namely positrons, were successfully generated in a 2 mm Pb converter. The average intensity of this new source of positrons is estimated to be equivalent to a radioactivity of 2×108 Bq and it exhibits a very favorable scaling for higher laser intensities. © 2002 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: In continuation of the collaborative work between the Institute of Laser Engineering, Osaka and Max–Planck-Institut für Quantenoptik, Garching on x-ray confining cavities, we have performed a new series of experiments using the GEKKO-XII laser facility (4 kJ, 0.9 ns, λ=0.35 μm). The results from two experimental objectives will be presented. The first objective was the direct observation of the x-ray confinement effect in a cavity. A special design target allowed the simultaneous measurement of the x-ray flux emanating from a "closed'' cavity and an "open'' cavity. The second objective was the study of radiation transport mechanism in high- and low-Z materials. Thin foils of Au and Al were used as windows on diagnostic holes of x-ray confining cavities and their emission was compared to that of an open hole. A summary of the main results will be presented.

    Notes: We have developed a new soft x-ray spectrometer covering the photon energy range of 50–500 eV. It employs a free-standing transmission grating coupled to a microchannel-plate detector (MCD). The performance of the device was tested by using radiation from a synchrotron with a continuous spectrum. The MCD shows a rather flat response over most of the useful spectral range, with an abrupt decrease in the sensitivity at the short-wavelength end. Its simplicity of operation makes the device attractive for such applications as the study of soft x-ray emission from laser-produced plasmas.

    Notes: A semiempirical method of calibrating a thinned, backside illuminated charge coupled device (CCD) chip in the soft x-ray region is presented. It is based on determining the thickness of the dead layer self-consistently using the continuum emission from laser produced plasmas. The CCD camera system was coupled to a transmission grating spectrometer and recorded the spectrally resolved continuum emission from laser irradiated tungsten targets. The thickness of the dead layer was then determined by comparing the experimental spectra with the calculated quantum efficiency for a thinned CCD using a simplified model. In this way the CCD chip was semiempirically calibrated. The accuracy of the calibration in the soft x-ray range was assessed by comparing the CCD recorded spectra with those recorded by a spectrometer using the absolutely calibrated Kodak 101 photographic plates and a similar transmission grating. Based on this calibration, the CCD sensitivity is deduced to be about two orders of magnitude higher than that of the Kodak plates in this wavelength range. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: We have developed a magnetic spectrometer to characterize the hot electrons generated in high-intensity (〉1018 W/cm2) laser-plasma interaction experiments. It comprises a dispersive element consisting of a permanent dipole magnet and an electron detector incorporating 45 scintillating/light-guiding plastic fibers connected to a cooled charged-coupled device camera. The main features of this instrument are high spectral resolution, low sensitivity to x and γ rays, and versatility due to its compact design. Performance and operational capabilities are illustrated based on experimental results in which electron energy–spectra in the range of 520 keV to 12.6 MeV were obtained with an energy resolution of 10% and a detection threshold of 106 electrons per MeV. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Utilizing a femtosecond table-top laser system, we have succeeded in converting via electron acceleration in a plasma channel, low-energy photons into antiparticles, namely positrons. The average intensity of this source of positrons is estimated to be equivalent to 2×108 Bq and it exhibits a very favorable scaling for higher laser intensities. The advent of positron production utilizing femtosecond laser pulses may be the forerunner to a table-top positron source appropriate for applications in material science, and fundamental physics research like positronium spectroscopy. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: We have investigated the MeV bremsstrahlung which is emitted when fast electrons generated by the interaction of 200 mJ, 130 fs Ti:sapphire laser pulses with a preformed plasma penetrate into a solid target. Employing different targets the dependence of the γ-ray spectrum on the atomic number was studied. We detected single γ photons with an energy up to 2.5 MeV and found a maximum conversion efficiency of the laser energy into MeV bremsstrahlung of 4×10−6. Data analysis using a Monte Carlo code revealed a fast-electron temperature of 0.9 MeV.© 1998 American Institute of Physics.
