The paper presents results of investigations of the process of the creation of a diamagnetic cavity by a laser-produced plasma in a strong transverse magnetic field of 10 T in induction. The plasma was produced from a flat, teflon target by an Nd laser of 5 J in energy and about 1 ns in pulse duration. The investigations were carried on by means of a three-frame interferometry and a non-contact magnetic probe, a so called remote magnetic probe (RMP). For the needs of this work, we developed a methodology for the measurement of the dimensions of the cavity during its expansion by means of the RMP, taking into account the plasma expansion geometry that is specific to flat targets. The dynamics of the process of creation of the diamagnetic cavity, its shape and dimensions have been determined. A very good consistency of dimensions of the diamagnetic cavity and plasma boundary in their quasisteady state, obtained with both diagnostics, allows us to apply the RMP method not only for the investigation of diamagnetic properties of various laser-produced plasmas, but also for the evaluation of their initial kinetic energy and its transformation in magnetic field.
