Investigating energy transport in high density plasmas using buried layer targets

The work presented in this thesis investigates energy transport in laser irradiated solid targets containing a diagnostic buried iron layer. Energy transport in laser-plasmas is important to inertial confinement fusion and other applications, for example laser ablation, particle acceleration and x-r...
