Particle-in-Cell modeling of a potential demonstration experiment for double pulse enhanced target normal sheath acceleration
Nashad Rahman, Joseph R. Smith, Gregory Ngirmang +1
Ultra intense lasers are a promising source of energetic ions for various applications. An interesting approach described in Ferri et al. 2019 argues from Particle-in-Cell simulati…
