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…

Coulomb implosion mechanism of negative ion acceleration in laser plasmas
T. Nakamura, Y. Fukuda, A. Yogo +10
Coulomb implosion mechanism of the negatively charged ion acceleration in laser plasmas is proposed. When a cluster target is irradiated by an intense laser pulse and the Coulomb e…
