Relative and absolute dosimetric commissioning of the ELIMAIA--ELIMED laser-driven proton beamline at 23.45 MeV
G. A. P. Cirrone, G. Petringa, A. Kurmanova +12
The development of laser-driven proton beamlines for biomedical and radiobiological applications requires traceable dosimetry and reliable online monitoring at the irradiation poin…
Characterization and automated optimization of laser-driven proton beams from converging liquid sheet jet targets
G. D. Glenn, F. Treffert, H. Ahmed +31
Compact, stable, and versatile laser-driven ion sources hold great promise for applications ranging from medicine to materials science and fundamental physics. While single-shot so…
Demonstration of The Brightest Nano-size Gamma Source
A. S. Pirozhkov, A. Sagisaka, K. Ogura +46
Gamma rays selectively interact with nuclei, induce and mediate nuclear reactions and elementary particle interactions, and exceed x-rays in penetrating power and thus are indispen…
Laser initiated p-11B fusion reactions in petawatt high-repetition-rates laser facilities
M. Scisciò, G. Petringa, Z. Zhu +43
Driving the nuclear fusion reaction p+11B -> 3 alpha + 8.7 MeV in laboratory conditions, by interaction between high-power laser pulses and matter, has become a popular field of re…
