Laser-driven platform for generation and characterization of strong quasi-static magnetic fields

Quasi-static magnetic-fields up to 800 T are generated in the interaction of intense laser pulses (500 J, 1 ns, ${10}^{17}\;{\rm{W}}\;{\mathrm{cm}}^{-2}$ ) with capacitor-coil targets of different materials. The reproducible magnetic-field peak and rise-time, consistent with the laser pulse duration...
