Role in the project

1

Tosa Valer

CSI

Project leader. He is the author of the main computer code used for the calculations. Modifies parts of the code such to be suitable to treat the specific configurations to be implemented in ELI-NP.

2

Bende Attila

CSI

Senior researcher, has expertise in ab-initio calculations. He calulates the ionization rates of the molecular gases residually present in the beam transport tubes in the ELI-NP infrastructure. Due to the extremely high laser intensities the atoms and molecules will be completely ionized.

3

Kovacs Katalin

CSIII

Has expertise in modeling the propagation of electromagnetic pulses in ionized media and modeling the interaction of short pulses with atoms. She uses the computer code to model different possible beam transport and diagnostics configurations relevant to the future ELI-NP infrastructure

4

Falamas Alexandra

CS

Young researcher, has experitse in experimental laser beam characterization and diagnostics. She provides the modeling-team the practical information regarding the bottlencks in the characterization of powerful laser pulses, and suggests the possible places and methods for beam diagnostics.
