Femtosecond microscopy of radial energy transport in a micrometer-scale aluminum plasma excited at relativistic intensity

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Using femtosecond microscopy, we observe subpicosecond transport of thermal energy radially outward from a micrometer-sized spot of an aluminum target following P-polarized excitation at >1018Wcm2 with a 24fs pulse. The rapid expansion coincides with the onset of nonlocal energy transport dominated by radiation and hot electrons.
