超短脉冲强激光与等离子体相互作用时产生的向靶内传输的超热电子在“快点火”方案中起着极其重要的作用.对于这部分向靶内传输的超热电子,韧致辐射方法是一种能有效、全面获得超热电子各方面信息的诊断方法.通过三维蒙特卡罗程序MCNP模拟了超热电子在靶材料中的输运以及它们在靶后方向产生的韧致辐射的性质,论证了韧致辐射诊断方法的可行性.
Hot electrons produced in the ultra-intense laser-plasma interactions play very important roles in the scheme of "fast ignition". Bremsstrahlung measurements can be an effective method to diagnose the hot electrons accelerated in the forward direction. The transport of the hot electrons and the characteristics of the bremsstrahlung photons were calculated using the Monte Carlo electron-photon transport code MCNP. The feasibility of the bremsstrahlung diagnostic method in laser plasma interactions is also discussed.
