The experimental data are obtained in the experiment titled “Intense terahertz radiation from picosecond laser-produced plasmas” (App No.: 16110035, PI: David Neely), performed at TAW Vulcan from 8th May 2017 to 10th June 2017. The data are taken to demonstrate a terahertz (THz) pule energy as high as tens of millijoules (mJ) and identify the underlying THz generation mechanisms.

The acquisition and analysis methods of the data can also be found in the manuscript.enCreative Commons Attribution 4.0 Internationallaser–plasma interactionterahertz radiationextreme terahertz scienceDataset
