High-brilliance synchrotron radiation induced by the plasma magnetostatic mode
Using multidimensional particle-in-cell simulations, we show that the magnetic undulator-type field of the plasma magnetostatic mode is indeed produced by the interaction of a laser pulse with a relativistic ionization front, as predicted by linear theory for a cold plasma. When the front with this...
