Recent studies of laser produced plasmas

Abstract: Recent work on laser produced plasmas is presented focusing on the theoretical studies of four topics which have been carried out at the Institute of Laser Engineering (ILE), Osaka University, after a brief explanation of the six physics issues to be studied for plasma physics related to the laser fusion. The importance of integrated code development is emphasized and it is shown that the growth of the Rayleigh-Taylor instability at the ablation front is reduced partly due to non-local electron transport. Non-… Show more

“…One is the "passive" way in which the X-ray or optical signals coming from the plasmas are measured. 25) The other is the "active" way in which X-rays generated by another lasers are used to diagnose the laser-produced plasmas or another lasers are used for diagnostics. A variety of active and passive ways can be designed in laser astrophysics experiment.…”

“…However, numerical simulation had been the only way to investigate collisionless shock formation in astrophysical plasmas. Laboratory astrophysics is a relatively new field of science, and the essential idea is to use experimental simulations of astrophysical phenomena to prove theoretical and numerical models [3][4][5][6]. We have investigated collisionless shock formations in laser produced plasmas.…”

“…By contrast, in astrophysical phenomena, the global images are obtained from their emissions though local observations of physical quantities are inaccessible. Recent rapid growth of laser technologies allows us to model space and astrophysical phenomena in laboratories (Drake 1999;Remington et al 1999Remington et al , 2006Takabe et al 1999). For instance, collisionless shocks have been experimentally investigated in laser-produced counterstreaming plasmas (Morita et al 2010Kuramitsu et al 2011Kuramitsu et al , 2012Kugland et al 2012;Ross et al 2012;Fox et al 2013;Yuan et al 2013;Huntington et al 2015;Park et al 2015).W efirst reported the relatively laminar density jump with optical interferometry in collisionless counterstreaming plasmas in the absence of an external magnetic field using the Shenguang II laser facility (Morita et al 2010).…”
