Laser-driven proton acceleration and applications: Recent results
The acceleration of high-energy ion beams following the interaction of short (t < 1 ps) and intense (Iλ2 > 1018 W cm-2 μm2) laser pulses with solid targets is a field of research currently attracting high interes...

Observations of plasma heating by fast electron transport at the back side of solid targets
Fast adiabatic plasma heating of a thin solid target irradiated by a high intensity laser has been observed by optical fast interferometry diagnostic. It is driven by the hot electron current induced by the la...

X-ray measurements at high-power lasers
Conversion efficiencies of laser light into K x-ray radiation are used to characterize laser-solid interactions e.g. in measurements with back-lighter targets in Inertial Confinement Fusion research or in ultr...
