    The role of transient plasma photonic structures in plasma-based amplifiers

    High power lasers have become useful scientific tools, but their large size is determined by their low damage-threshold optical media. A more robust and compact medium for amplifying and manipulating intense l...

    Gamma-rays from harmonically resonant betatron oscillations in a plasma wake

    The radiation produced when an intense laser interacts with a solid target could provide a cheaper source of X-rays to synchrotrons and free-electron lasers. But they can also produce short bursts of gamma ray...

    An experimental and numerical study of hydrogen-bonding in aqueous salts and methanol

    The hydrogen-bonding spectrum and rotational diffusion decays of aqueous salt solutions have been studied by OHD-OKE spectroscopy. Terahertz absorption, FTIR, and OKE spectroscopy have been combined with molec...

    Terahertz Emission from Nano-structured Metal Surfaces

    Nanostructured metal surfaces were created by depositing a 30 nm layer of bulk gold onto a periodic fused silica transmission grating. By exciting this with a femtosecond laser beam, in air, results in teraher...
