Abstract

The physical mechanism for the generation of very high ``dc'' magnetic fields in the interaction of ultraintense short laser pulse with an overdense plasma target originates in the spatial gradients and nonstationary character of the ponderomotive force. A set of model equations to determine the evolution of the ``dc'' fields is derived and it is shown that the ``dc'' magnetic field is of the same order of magnitude as the high frequency laser magnetic field.
