Temporally and spatially resolved measurements of multi-megagauss magnetic fields in high intensity laser-produced plasmas

We report spatially and temporally resolved measurements of self-generated multi-megagauss magnetic fields produced during ultrahigh intensity laser plasma interactions. Spatially resolved measurements of the magnetic fields show an asymmetry in the distribution of field with respect to the angle of...
