Simultaneous PW-scale laser driven MeV X-ray and neutron beam characterization for dual radiography capability
I. Cohen, W. Yao, N. Mirkovic +28
Laser-driven, high-brilliance secondary sources (electrons, ions, neutrons, X-rays) open new perspectives for compact material probing and imaging of high-speed events. A key advan…

Characterization and performance of the Apollon main short-pulse laser beam following its commissioning at 2 PW level
Weipeng Yao, Ronan Lelièvre, Itamar Cohen +43
We present the results of the second commissioning phase of the short-focal-length area of the Apollon laser facility (located in Saclay, France), which was performed with the main…

A Comprehensive Characterization of the Neutron Fields Produced by the Apollon Petawatt Laser
Ronan Lelièvre, Weipeng Yao, Tessa Waltenspiel +13
Since two decades, laser-driven neutron emissions are studied as they represent a complementary source to conventional neutron sources, with further more different characteristics…
