Identification of Coupling Mechanisms between Ultraintense Laser Light and Dense Plasmas
The interaction of intense laser beams with plasmas created on solid targets involves a rich nonlinear physics. Because such dense plasmas are reflective for laser light, the coupling with the incident beam occurs within a thin layer at the interface between plasma and vacuum. One of the main paradi...
