Unexpected impact of radiation friction: enhancing production of longitudinal plasma waves.
Scientific Reports 2018 April 25
We study the penetration of ultra-intense (intensity I [Formula: see text] 1023-24 W/cm2 ) circularly polarized laser pulses into a thick subcritical plasma layer with accounting for radiation friction. We show that radiation pressure is enhanced due to radiation friction in the direction transverse to the laser pulse propagation, and that for stronger and longer laser pulses this mechanism dominates over the ordinary ponderomotive pressure, thus resulting in a substantionaly stronger charge separation than anticipated previously. We give estimates of the effect and compare them with the results of one and two dimensional particle-in-cell simulations. This effect can be important for laser-based acceleration schemes.
