We examine a regime in which a linearly polarized laser pulse with relativistic intensity
irradiates a sub-critical plasma for much longer than the characteristic electron response …

Using three-dimensional kinetic simulations, we examine the emission of collimated γ-ray
beams from structured laser-irradiated targets with a prefilled cylindrical channel and its …

A new type of transient photonic crystals for high-power lasers is presented. The crystal is
produced by counterpropagating laser beams in plasma. Trapped electrons and electrically …

We show that a single laser pulse, traveling through a dense plasma, produces a population
of MeV photons of sufficient density to generate a large number of electron–positron pairs …

A high-intensity laser beam propagating through a dense plasma drives a strong current that
robustly sustains a strong quasistatic azimuthal magnetic field. The laser field efficiently …

Laser-plasma interactions in the novel regime of relativistically induced transparency (RIT)
have been harnessed to generate intense ion beams efficiently with average energies …

The collective response of charged particles to intense fields is intrinsic to plasma
accelerators and radiation sources, relativistic optics and many astrophysical phenomena …

The ability of an intense laser pulse to propagate in a classically over-critical plasma through
the phenomenon of relativistic transparency is shown to facilitate the generation of strong …

We report the first complete set of measurements of a laser-plasma optical system's
refractive index, as seen by a second probe laser beam, as a function of the relative …

An ionization induced plasma grating can be formed by spatially selective ionization of
gases by the interference of two intersecting ultra-short laser pulses. The density modulation …
