The conditions for the formations of plasma-based waveguide in non-ablative argon-filled capillary discharge are studied theoretically. The pinch dynamics is simulated using magneto-hydrodynamic code originally developed and utilized to find proper conditions for operation of capillary-discharge Ar+8 soft x-ray laser. The presented results show that the ablation-free capillary z-pinch provides conditions that are suitable for guiding of high-intensity laser pulses on the earlier stages of the plasma compression.

Abstract
The conditions for the formations of plasma-based waveguide in non-ablative argon-filled capillary discharge are studied theoretically. The pinch dynamics is simulated using magneto-hydrodynamic code originally developed and utilized to find proper conditions for operation of capillary-discharge Ar+8 soft x-ray laser. The presented results show that the ablation-free capillary z-pinch provides conditions that are suitable for guiding of high-intensity laser pulses on the earlier stages of the plasma compression.File in questo prodotto:
