Abstract

Within the framework of a stationary model of relativistic self-focusing, it is shown that the addition of a thin layer of denser plasma on the propagation axis of a circularly polarized beam increases the axial magnetic field generated by it via the inverse Faraday effect by more than a factor of 10 compared to the case of a homogeneous plasma. The magnitude of the axial field in this case can exceed the magnetic field of the laser wave, which makes it possible, at radiation intensities ∼ 1026~W/cm2 potentially achievable in the near future, to approach the level of teragauss quasi-stationary fields.

AB  - Within the framework of a stationary model of relativistic self-focusing, it is shown that the addition of a thin layer of denser plasma on the propagation axis of a circularly polarized beam increases the axial magnetic field generated by it via the inverse Faraday effect by more than a factor of 10 compared to the case of a homogeneous plasma. The magnitude of the axial field in this case can exceed the magnetic field of the laser wave, which makes it possible, at radiation intensities ∼ 10^26~W/cm^2 potentially achievable in the near future, to approach the level of teragauss quasi-stationary fields.
