Abstract

Spatial and temporal resolved ultrashort(8ps) multimegagauss(65 MG) magnetic field has been measured in plasma produced on Al-coated BK-7 glass by the interaction of a relativististic intensity laser(4x1018W/cm2, 30 fs) using pump-probe polarimetry. The 2D profile of magnetic field is captured using a CCD camera. Mapping of this magnetic field maps the transport of relativistic electrons in the plasma. The magnetic field profiles indicate filamentary behavior (Weibel-like instability). Particle in cell simulation are used to explain the result obtained.
