Ion Acceleration via "Nonlinear Vacuum Heating" by the Laser Pulse Obliquely Incident on a Thin Foil Target

A. Yogo, S. V. Bulanov, M. Mori +9

Dependence of the energy of ions accelerated during interaction of the laser pulse obliquelly incident on the thin foil target on the laser polarization is studied experimentally a…

Soft X-ray harmonic comb from relativistic electron spikes

A. S. Pirozhkov, M. Kando, T. Zh. Esirkepov +37

We demonstrate a new high-order harmonic generation mechanism reaching the `water window' spectral region in experiments with multi-terawatt femtosecond lasers irradiating gas jets…

X-ray harmonic comb from relativistic electron spikes

Alexander S. Pirozhkov, Masaki Kando, Timur Zh. Esirkepov +24

X-ray devices are far superior to optical ones for providing nanometre spatial and attosecond temporal resolutions. Such resolution is indispensable in biology, medicine, physics,…

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…

Transverse Dynamics and Energy Tuning of Fast Electrons Generated in Sub-Relativistic Intensity Laser Pulse Interaction with Plasmas

M. Mori, M. Kando, I. Daito +10

The regimes of quasi-mono-energetic electron beam generation were experimentally studied in the sub-relativistic intensity laser plasma interaction. The observed electron accelerat…
