Studies on fast electron transport in the context of fast ignition

This paper deals with the problem of fast electron propagation in plasmas, in the context of the fast ignition (FI) approach to inertial confinement fusion (ICF). In FI, a short-pulse high-intensity laser beam should generate a beam of relativistic electrons, which propagate into the compressed pellet, depositing energy and igniting the fuel. The study of electron propagation in dense matter is hence essential to the success of this scheme. The propagation of relativistic electrons in dense matter is determined by collisions of fast electrons with ions and electrons in the material, which can be described in terms of stopping power, but it also depends on self-generated magnetic and electric fields, which play a major, or even dominant role. In this paper we will show the importance of such collective effects by discussing several experimental examples.

Experimental and theoretical results of investigations of the iodine laser - Al solid target interactions on the PALS (Prague Asterix Laser System) facility are presented. The experimental investigations of laser interaction with massive Al targets devoted to shock wave propagation in solids and crater formation physics are presented. Experiments were performed with the use of high intensity laser pulses (1013 15 W/cm2) for two laser wavelengths (0.438 mi m and 1.315 mi m) and four laser beam radii (from 35 mi m up to 600 ěm). The crater dimensions were measured using optical microscopy and a wax-replica technique. Plasma expansion out of the target was measured via three-frame interferometry. Theoretical model of the postpulse crater formation by the shock wave propagating and decaying in solids after the end of the laser pulse is presented and applied for the explanation of the results obtained in experiments.
