Creation of hot dense matter in short-pulse laser-plasma interaction with tamped titanium foils
Dense titanium plasma has been heated to an electron temperature up to 1300 eV with a 100 TW, high intensity short-pulse laser. The experiments were conducted using Ti foils (5 μm thick) sandwiched between layers of either aluminum (1 or 2 μm thick) or plastic (2 μm thick) to prevent the effects of...
