Modelling laser-plasma interactions for the next generation of high-power laser experiments

Abstract:

Investigating new regimes of laser-plasma interactions requires advances in at least two technologies: targets and laser systems. Exploring these regimes includes developing diagnostics to obtain more information about complex systems such as inertial confinement implosions and constructing models that consider entirely novel and unexplored phenomena.

This thesis initially considers implementing state-of-the-art "mid-density" targets made of foam on current petawatt-class laser syst...
