Description:
The recent development of high-energy short-pulse laser systems has led to the
discovery of new phenomena in laser interactions with matter and in particular has
opened new perspectives in plasma physics allowing completely new regimes to be
experimentally investigated. Relativistic plasmas and Strongly-coupled Degenerate
Plasmas have become accessible. Applications like particle sources, X-rays and High
harmonics generation, Fast ignition are foreseen. At the same time recently
astrophysically relevant experiments and equation of state experiments in the
Multimegabar regime have been realised. Numerical, theoretical and diagnostics
improvements have also progressed at the same time.
