Abstract:
An analytical model has been developed for the generation of a superstrong quasi-stationary magnetic field (up to several GG) in the focal waist of an ultra-intense short circularly polarised laser pulse interacting with a gas-cluster target. The rotation of relativistic electrons around the ionised core of the cluster has been shown to produce a magnetic moment and a quasi-stationary magnetic field. With a large number of nanoclusters, the magnetic field occupies the entire focal volume with a characteristic spatial scale of tens of micrometers and exists during the cluster expansion time (i.e., several picoseconds).
Keywords:
superstrong quasi-stationary magnetic field, nanoclusters, superintense laser interaction.
