Numerical simulations to model laser-driven coil-capacitor targets for generation of kilo-Tesla magnetic fields

A coil-capacitor target is modeled using FEM simulations and analytical calculations, which allow to explain the time evolution of such complex target during magnetic field production driven by the flow of an extremely high current generated through the interaction with a high power laser. The numer...
