Theoretical Study of the Pre-Plasma Density Scale Length’s Influence on the Absorption Efficiency in Laser–Solid Interaction at Relativistic Laser Intensities for PW-Class Lasers

Theoretical Study of the Pre-Plasma Density Scale Length’s Influence on the Absorption Efficiency in Laser–Solid Interaction at Relativistic Laser Intensities for PW-Class Lasers

This work studied the pre-plasma that builds up in interactions of focused high-power PW-class lasers with solid targets at the target surface facing the laser beam, and its impact on the global laser absorption efficiency as well as on the spectral cut-off energy of laser-generated proton beams.
