4th<\/sup> Laser-Plasma Summer School (LaPlaSS2021)
Experimental methods in high-intensity laser-plasma processes<\/em><\/strong>
27th <\/sup>September-1st<\/sup> October 2021<\/span><\/p>\n

DEADLINE: 22nd<\/sup> SEPTEMBER 2021<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The <\/span> <\/span>Laser-Plasma Summer School -LAPLASS- is a specialized international event organized every year by the Spanish Center for Pulsed Lasers -CLPU- and the CLPU Laser-Plasma Chair <\/span><\/a><\/span>at the University of Salamanca. <\/span>Laser-driven plasma is the primary subject of investigation in modern high-power laser facilities. The Centro de L\u00e1seres Pulsados (CLPU) is one of the most representative facilities in this area operating a PW level system working at 1-10 Hz, VEGA. This system is already in operation and several experimental campaigns have been already run by different internationally recognized research groups.  The combination of laser intensity, short duration, and repetition rate offered by VEGA pave the way for new existing possibilities for the next experimental campaigns but also represent a scientific and technological challenge for what concerns targetry and diagnostic techniques.<\/span><\/p>\n

The fourth edition, titled ‘Experimental methods in High-Intensity Laser-Plasma processes’, will be supported by the European Project ‘IMPULSE<\/span><\/a>‘,<\/span> in which the CLPU participates.  <\/span><\/p>\n

The main objective of LAPLASS is to form students in the newly emerging field of Laser-Plasma Physics, and laser particle acceleration, which are both fields of investigation with deep relation with the ultrafast and ultraintense lasers as VEGA, at the Spanish Center for Pulsed Lasers. Indeed, high-power lasers such as VEGA can accelerate particle beams and create extreme plasmas. This field of research can generate improvements in many fields of research directly connected to civil applications among which few examples are: Ion beam for medical applications (proton therapy), Fast and resolved imaging for biology and material science, Laser fusion and Astrophysics, Cultural Heritage and material science applications.   <\/span><\/p>\n

These are the LAPLASS2021 most important data:<\/strong><\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n
