Laser-driven strong magnetostatic fields with applications to charged beam transport and magnetized high energy-density physics
Powerful laser-plasma processes are explored to generate discharge currents of a few 100 kA in coil targets, yielding magnetostatic fields (B-fields) in excess of 0.5 kT. The quasi-static currents are provided from hot electron ejection from the laser-irradiated surface. According to our model, whic...
