Ultra-High Energy Density Relativistic Plasmas and X-ray Generation by Ultrafast Laser Irradiation of Nanowire Arrays

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We demonstrate that trapping of femtosecond laser pulses of relativistic intensity deep within nanowire arrays volumetrically heats matter into a new ultra-hot plasma regime with electron densities nearly 100 times critical and multi-keV temperatures.
