    Enhanced ion acceleration with extremely thin foils

    Enhanced backward-acceleration of ions is experimentally observed when ultra-short, high-intensity and ultra-high-contrast laser pulses interact with thin foils having thicknesses in the order of the penetrati...

    Ion acceleration in ultra-high contrast regime

    In this work, we demonstrate that the contrast of high intensity laser pulses is a key issue for many problems dealing with high-field interaction with solid-density matter. As an example, we will discuss the ...

    Plasma mirrors for ultrahigh-intensity optics

    Specular reflection is one of the most fundamental processes of optics. At moderate light intensities generated by conventional light sources this process is well understood. But at those capable of being prod...
