Abstract

An approach for using intense femtosecond lasers to produce an equivalent idealized slab plasma of uniform electron density and temperature is described and demonstrated through numerical simulations. With a femtosecond laser as a probe, such a plasma allows the direct measurement of ac conductivity in the strongly coupled regime. It also serves as an initial value problem for the study of hot expanded states of matter.
