Gong Z, Cao S, Palastro J, Edwards M
Phys Rev Lett . 2025 Jan; 133(26):265002. PMID: 39879010
The extreme electric fields created in high-intensity laser-plasma interactions could generate energetic ions far more compactly than traditional accelerators. Despite this promise, laser-plasma accelerator experiments have been limited to maximum...

von der Linden J, Ramos-Mendez J, Faddegon B, Massin D, Fiksel G, Holder J, et al.
Rev Sci Instrum . 2021 Apr; 92(3):033516. PMID: 33820046
Electron-positron pairs, produced in intense laser-solid interactions, are diagnosed using magnetic spectrometers with image plates, such as the National Ignition Facility Electron-Positron-Proton Spectrometers (EPPSs). Although modeling can help infer the...

Edwards M, Fasano N, Mikhailova J
Phys Rev Lett . 2020 May; 124(18):185004. PMID: 32441983
Relativistic high-order harmonic generation from solid-density plasma offers a compact source of coherent ultraviolet and x-ray light. For solid targets much thinner than the laser wavelength, the plasma thickness can...

Edwards M, Mikhailova J
Sci Rep . 2020 Mar; 10(1):5154. PMID: 32198482
Ultrashort pulsed lasers provide uniquely detailed access to the ultrafast dynamics of physical, chemical, and biological systems, but only a handful of wavelengths are directly produced by solid-state lasers, necessitating...

Edwards M, Shi Y, Mikhailova J, Fisch N
Phys Rev Lett . 2019 Aug; 123(2):025001. PMID: 31386488
We consider backscattering of laser pulses in strongly magnetized plasma mediated by kinetic magnetohydrodynamic waves. Magnetized low-frequency (MLF) scattering, which can occur when the external magnetic field is neither perpendicular...

Qu K, Jia Q, Edwards M, Fisch N
Phys Rev E . 2018 Sep; 98(2-1):023202. PMID: 30253507
Frequency upconversion of an electromagnetic wave can occur in ionized plasma with decreasing electric permittivity and in split-ring resonator-structure metamaterials with decreasing magnetic permeability. We develop a general theory to...

Edwards M, Mikhailova J, Fisch N
Phys Rev E . 2017 Sep; 96(2-1):023209. PMID: 28950593
Plasma-based parametric amplification using stimulated Brillouin scattering offers a route to coherent x-ray pulses orders of magnitude more intense than those of the brightest available sources. Brillouin amplification permits amplification...

Edwards M, Mikhailova J
Phys Rev Lett . 2016 Oct; 117(12):125001. PMID: 27689281
We consider the efficiency limit of relativistic high-order-harmonic emission from solid targets achievable with tailored light fields. Using one-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations, the maximum energy conversion efficiency is shown to reach...

Edwards M, Fisch N, Mikhailova J
Phys Rev Lett . 2016 Jan; 116(1):015004. PMID: 26799025
Stimulated Brillouin backscattering of light is shown to be drastically enhanced in electron-positron plasmas, in contrast to the suppression of stimulated Raman scattering. A generalized theory of three-wave coupling between...
