Abstract

One of the main issues of the fast ignitor scheme is the role of fast electron transport in the solid fuel heating. Recent experiments used a new target scheme based on the use of cone to guide the PW laser and enhance the electron production. In this context it is fundamental to understand the physics underlying this new target scheme. We report here recent and preliminary results of ultra-intense laser pulse interaction with three layer targets in presence of the cone. Experiments have been performed at LULI with the 100 TW laser, at intensities up to 3 10¹⁹ W/cm². Several diagnostics have been implemented (2D K α imaging, K α spectroscopy and rear side imaging, protons emission) to quantify the cone effect.
