被引用回数:152 パーセンタイル:95.69(Physics, Multidisciplinary)The propagation in a rarefied plasma of collisionless shock-waves and ion-acoustic solitons, excited following the interaction of a long and intense laser pulse with solid targets, has been investigated via proton probing techniques. The shocks structures and related electric field distributions were reconstructed with high spatial and temporal resolution. The experimental results were interpreted within the framework of the nonlinear wave description based on the Korteweg-de Vries-Burgers (KdV-B) equation.

被引用回数:79 パーセンタイル:90.15(Physics, Multidisciplinary)Experimental evidence of plasma jets ejected from the rear side of thin solid targets irradiated by ultra-intense (

) laser pulses is presented. The jets, detected by transverse inter-ferometric measurements with high spatial and temporal resolutions, show collimated expansion, lasting for several hundreds of picoseconds, and have substantially steep density gradients at their periphery. The predominant role played by radiation pressure of the laser in the jet formation process is highlighted analytically and by extensive two dimensional particle in cell simulations.
