When a laser pulse with a relativistic intensity is focused onto a solid target, the material is instantly ionized and forms a plasma mirror, namely an overdense plasma with a short density gradient on its front side. During the laser pulse reflection, high harmonics are generated in the reflected pulse, and electrons can be accelerated out of the target. While the mechanisms for high harmonic generation are well-known, the acceleration of electrons remained unclear. Based on experimental results from two ultraintense femtosecond laser systems (the "Salle Noire" laser at LOA and the UHI100 laser at CEA), this theoretical and numerical thesis unravels the mechanisms for ejection and acceleration of electrons, following three research lines. ...
