Investigation of laser pulse length and pre-plasma scale length impact on hot electron generation on OMEGA-EP

A series of experiments studying pre-plasma’s effect on electron generation and transport due to a high intensity laser were conducted on the OMEGA-EP laser facility. A controlled pre-plasma was produced in front of an aluminum foil target prior to the arrival of the high intensity short pulse beam....
