Abstract
The effect of an externally applied magnetic field on the generation and transport of hot electrons in CO2 laser irradiation of cylindrical targets has been investigated. It is observed that an external magnetic field of 100 kG increases the energy coupled into the target by superhot (>100 keV) electrons by more than an order of magnitude. The transport of these electrons through a Mylar layer at solid density however is strongly inhibited by the presence of an imbedded magnetic field.
