High intensity laser-matter interactions; Proceedings of the Meeting, Los Angeles, CA, Jan. 12, 13, 1988
The present conference discusses topics in the physics of intense laser output-target matter interactions, such interactions' applications, laser-plasma X-ray sources, and ultrafast phenomena and their diagnostics. Attention is given to short-pulse laser interactions with solids, atomic photoionization in intense optical fields, results from high-temperature laser-fusion compression results, laser-driven plasma accelerators, shock multiplication in multilayered targets, and the physics of condensed matter at extreme conditions. Also discussed are space- and time-resolved diagnostics of soft X-ray emission from laser plasmas, a chirped-pulse amplification teraWatt laser, the interaction of high-power femtosec pulses with gases, and C-ray sources from picosec laser plasma excitation.
