Proton imaging has become a key diagnostic for measuring electromagnetic fields in high-
energy-density (HED) laboratory plasmas. Compared to other techniques for diagnosing …

This review aims at providing an up-to-date status and a general introduction to the subject
of the numerical study of energetic particle acceleration and transport in turbulent …

In this paper, we review the status of the multifunctional experimental platform at the
National Laboratory of High Power Laser and Physics (NLHPLP). The platform, including the …

Observations of magnetic reconnection between colliding plumes of magnetized laser-
produced plasma are presented. Two counterpropagating plasma flows are created by …

Magnetic reconnection rapidly converts magnetic energy into some combination of plasma
flow energy, thermal energy and non-thermal energetic particles. Various reconnection …

Abstract The National Science Foundation's Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope (DKIST) will
revolutionize our ability to measure, understand, and model the basic physical processes …

The magnetic fields generated at the surface of a laser-irradiated planar solid target are
mapped using ultrafast proton radiography. Thick (50 μ m) plastic foils are irradiated with 4 …

In experiments performed with the OMEGA EP laser system, magnetic field generation in
double ablation fronts was observed. Proton radiography measured the strength, spatial …

A two-dimensional (2D) linear theory of the instability of Sweet-Parker (SP) current sheets is
developed in the framework of reduced magnetohydrodynamics. A local analysis is …

Biermann battery magnetic field generation driven by high power laser–solid interactions is
explored in experiments performed with the OMEGA EP laser system. Proton deflectometry …
