First Tests of the I-BEAT Detector as Primary Monitor for Target Normal Sheath Accelerated Protons

F. Balling, S. Gerlach, A. -K. Schmidt +5

The properties of laser-accelerated ion bunches are demanding and require development of suitable beam diagnostics. In particular, the short and intense particle bunches with a bro…

Real-time Electron Solvation Induced by Bursts of Laser-accelerated Protons in Liquid Water

A. Prasselsperger, M. Coughlan, N. Breslin +11

Understanding the mechanisms of proton energy deposition in matter and subsequent damage formation is fundamental to radiation science. Here we exploit the picosecond (10^-12 s) re…

Charge-state resolved laser acceleration of gold ions to beyond 7 MeV/u

F. H. Lindner, E. G. Fitzpatrick, D. Haffa +6

In the past years, the interest in the laser-driven acceleration of heavy ions in the mass range of A ~ 200 has been increasing due to promising application ideas like the fission-…

Photo-induced pair production and strong field QED on Gemini

CH Keitel, A Di Piazza, GG Paulus +12

The extreme intensities obtainable with lasers such as Gemini allow non-linear QED phenomena to be investigated according to our calculations. Electron-positron pair production fro…

Ionoacoustic detection of swift heavy ions

Sebastian Lehrack, Walter Assmann, Markus Bender +4

The maximum energy loss (Bragg peak) located near the end of range is a characteristic feature of ion stopping in matter, which generates an acoustic pulse, if ions are deposited i…

Temporally Resolved Intensity Contouring (TRIC) for characterization of the absolute spatio-temporal intensity distribution of a relativistic, femtosecond laser pulse

Daniel Haffa, Jianhui Bin, Martin Speicher +6

Today's high-power laser systems are capable of reaching photon intensities up to W/cm^2, generating plasmas when interacting with material. The high intensity and ultras…
