Physics Colloquium: Short-Pulse Laser-Matter Interaction: From Superheated Solid to Ultra-Relativistic Plasma
Description:
Since the invention of femtosecond lasers and chirped pulse amplification (CPA) systems, short laser pulses with powers spanning from GW to PW have been widely used in almost every branch of science, leading to numerous discoveries andnovel techniques. Yuan Ping, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, will summarizes experimental research in two regimes of the laser intensities.
