Target surface area effects on hot electron dynamics from high intensity laser–plasma interactions
Reduced surface area targets were studied using an ultra-high intensity femtosecond laser in order to determine the effect of electron sheath field confinement on electron dynamics. X-ray emission due to energetic electrons was imaged using a ${K}_{\alpha }$ imaging crystal. Electrons were observed...
