Experimental simulation of parametric instabilities in laser-plasma interactions. Interim report

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:7096908
There is currently a great interest in the mechanisms by which intense electromagnetic radiation interacts with plasmas. A major impetus for this interest has been the laser-pellet fusion program. The process whereby the incident electromagnetic wave gives up energy to the plasma can be much more complex than simple binary collisional damping by electronion collisions. (Author)
