Hot, dense matter creation via ultra-intense laser interaction with novel, structured targets.

该项目名为“通过超强激光与新型结构目标的相互作用产生热的致密物质”。高功率激光可以获得足够高的强度，从小目标产生相对论电子束，通过构建这些目标，可以提高相互作用的效率，并控制产生的电子束。这对于惯性约束聚变中的快速点火机制特别重要。我将使用计算和实验来探讨这一问题。

The project is titled "hot dense matter creation via ultra-intense laser interaction with novel structured targets". High-power lasers can achieve intensities high enough to generate relativistic electron beams from small targets, and by structuring these targets, the efficiency of the interaction can be improved and the resulting electron beam controlled. This is of particular importance for the fast ignition regime in inertial confinement fusion. I'll pursue this using both computation and experiment.
