Capturing the three dimensional, nano-scale, pico-second dynamics of plasma mirrors with intense ultrashort laser wavefront measurement

Plasma Physics 2025-05-06 v1

Abstract

We present a direct measurement of the nanoscale dynamics of plasma mirrors using wavefront measurement techniques. This two-dimensional measurement, performed via pump-probe diagnostics, enables the reconstruction of the three-dimensional plasma mirror surface with nanometer axial, micrometer transverse, and femtosecond temporal resolution.
