Abstract

A method and a system for measurement of high laser field intensity, the method comprising tight focusing a non-Gaussian azimuthally polarized laser mode beam to a focusing spot, measuring a spectral line shape of a selected ionization state induced by a longitudinal oscillating magnetic field created by the tight focusing in the focusing spot; and determining the laser intensity from the spectral line shape. The system comprises a laser source of a peak power in a range between 100 terawatt and 10 petawatt; a converter unit; a tight focusing optics; and spectral measurement means; wherein the converter unit polarizes a main laser beam from the laser source into a non-Gaussian azimuthally polarized laser mode beam; the tight focusing optics focuses the azimuthally polarized laser mode beam to a focusing spot, yielding a longitudinal oscillating magnetic field of an intensity proportional to the laser intensity, the spectral measurement means measuring a line shape of a selected ionization state induced by the longitudinal oscillating magnetic field in focusing spot.
