Laserlab-Europe Talk: Laser ablation propulsion: high power pulsed laser irradiation and advanced experimental investigation

Speaker: Séverine Boyer (MINES-Paris/PSL) Orbital debris removal in low Earth orbit (LEO) opens the way to a new paradigm in space propulsion. The use of high-power pulsed laser interaction (HP PLI) offers a perspective in this field. This concept is based on laser ablation. The high-power HiLASE beamline facility (Dolní Břežany, Czech Republic), with Perla-B […]

Laserlab-Europe Talk: Electromagnetic pulse generation by sub-nanosecond kilojoule laser pulses, 8 Oct 2025

Speaker: Jakub Cikhardt (Czech Technical University) The interaction of a focused high-power laser with matter results in the generation of an electromagnetic pulse (EMP). In the case of terawatt and petawatt lasers, the intensity of the EMP is strong enough to interfere with diagnostic signals and may cause malfunction or distortion of electronic devices. Moreover, […]
