Ultrafast dynamics of relativistic laser plasma interactions
This thesis documents the experimental and theoretical investigation of laser pulse evolution in relativistic laser-plasma interactions for plasma-wakefield acceleration and ion acceleration experiments. Power amplification of the Astra Gemini laser in a plasma was observed, with the compression of...
