Bayesian optimisation
In order to optimise the energy coupling from a laser pulse to a finite-size spherical solid target, we have performed a Bayesian optimisation study using a reduced model based on 2D Osiris simulations. The numerical scheme, showed in the figure, optimises the laser duration, wavelength and particle density of the spherical solid target for the maximum K-alpha ionisation […]
Spectral Broadening and post-compression
Mariana Cunha da Silva has been working on Spectral Broadening and post-compression, at the Voxel lab in IST. During this experiment Mariana mentioned that in order to achieve pulses in the very limit of temporal duration requires not only an ultrashort laser system, such as the ones available in the laboratories of the GoLP team […]
