Temperature profiles derived from transverse optical shadowgraphy in ultraintense laser plasma interactions at 6 × 1020 W cm? 2

Temperature profiles derived from transverse optical shadowgraphy in ultraintense laser plasma interactions at 6 × 1020 W cm? 2

A variety of targets with different dimensions and materials was irradiated using the VULCAN PW laser [C. N. Danson, Nucl. Fusion 44, S239 (2004)]. Using transverse optical shadowgraphy in conjunction with a one-dimensional radiation hydrodynamics code it was possible to determine a longitudinal tem...
