High-Power Laser Pump-Probe Experiments At The Linac Coherent Light Source

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

The Matter in Extreme Conditions end station at the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) is a new tool enabling ultrafast pump-probe measurements of laser-matter interactions. This instrument combines the world’s brightest x-ray source, the LCLS x-ray beam, with high-power lasers consisting of two nanosecond Nd:glass laser beams and a 25 TW short-pulse Ti:sapphire laser. These lasers produce short-lived states of matter with high pressures, high temperatures or high densities whose properties are investigated with highly accurate x-ray measurements. Here, we report on new results using x-ray imaging, diffraction, and scattering that resolve the short-pulse laser beam propagation and heating of matter.
