Speaker: Jakub Cikhardt (Czech Technical University)The interaction of a focused high-power laser with matter results in the generation of an electromagnetic pulse (EMP). In the case of terawatt and petawatt lasers, the intensity of the EMP is strong enough to interfere with diagnostic signals and may cause malfunction or distortion of electronic devices. Moreover, the […]
The Laserlab-Europe Expert Group on laser-generated electromagnetic pulses (EMPs) will be holding their regular workshop at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory this year. It will be a two day event, featuring oral and poster presentations and ending with a round table discussion. In experiments involving high power lasers, a significant portion of the incoming laser energy […]
