Evolution of the electric fields induced in high intensity laser-matter interactions
F. G. Bisesto, M. P. Anania, M. Botton +9
Multi MeV protons \cite{snavely2000intense} and heavier ions are emitted by thin foils irradiated by high-intensity lasers, due to the huge accelerating fields, up to several terae…
Recent studies on single-shot diagnostics for plasma accelerators at SPARC_LAB
F. G. Bisesto, M. P. Anania, M. Botton +11
Plasma wakefield acceleration is the most promising acceleration technique for compact and cheap accelerators, thanks to the high accelerating gradients achievable. Nevertheless, t…
Enhanced Proton Acceleration by an Ultrashort Laser Interaction with Structured Dynamic Plasma Targets
A. Zigler, S. Eisenman, M. Botton +14
We experimentally demonstrate a notably enhanced acceleration of protons to high energy by relatively modest ultrashort laser pulses and structured dynamical plasma targets. Realiz…
5.5-7.5 MeV Proton generation by a moderate intensity ultra-short laser interaction with H2O nano-wire targets
A. Zigler, T. Palchan, N. Bruner +8
We report on the first generation of 5.5-7.5 MeV protons by a moderate intensity short-pulse laser (4.5 \times 1017 W/cm^2, 50 fsec) interacting with H2O nano-wires (snow) deposite…
