Abstract
The magnetic field generation by a relativistic laser light irradiated on a thin target at the oblique incidence is investigated using a two dimensional particle-in-cell simulation. The surface magnetic field inhibits the electron transport towards the inside plasma, when an incident angle exceeds the critical angle, which depends on the laser and plasma parameters.
