Strong field electrodynamics of a thin foil
Sergei V. Bulanov, Timur Zh. Esirkepov, Masaki Kando +3
Exact solutions describing the nonlinear electrodynamics of a thin double layer foil are presented. These solutions correspond to a broad range of problems of interest for the inte…
Ion Acceleration by the Radiation Pressure of Slow Electromagnetic Wave
S. V. Bulanov, T. Zh. Esirkepov, M. Kando +6
When the ions are accelerated by the radiation pressure of the laser pulse, their velocity can not exceed the laser group velocity, in the case when it is less than the speed of li…
Novel path towards compact laser ion accelerators for hadron therapy: Tenfold energy increase in laser-driven multi-MeV ion generation using a gas target mixed with submicron clusters
Y. Fukuda, A. Ya. Faenov, M. Tampo +20
We demonstrate generation of 10-20 MeV/u ions with a compact 4 TW laser using a gas target mixed with submicron clusters, corresponding to tenfold increase in the ion energies comp…
