Charge equilibration of Laser-accelerated Carbon Ions in Foam Target

Bubo Ma, Jieru Ren, Lirong Liu +39

The charge equilibration of laser-accelerated carbon ion beams in 2 mg/cm3 foam target was investigated experimentally. The ions were generated through target normal sheath acceler…

Energy loss enhancement of very intense proton beams in dense matter due to the beam-density effect

Benzheng Chen, Jieru Ren, Zhigang Deng +27

Thoroughly understanding the transport and energy loss of intense ion beams in dense matter is essential for high-energy-density physics and inertial confinement fusion. Here, we r…

Transport of intense ion beams in plasmas: collimation and energy-loss reduction

Yongtao Zhao, Benzheng Chen, Dong Wu +15

We compare the transport properties of a well-characterized hydrogen plasma for low and high current ion beams. The energy-loss of low current beams can be well understood, within…

Target density effects on charge tansfer of laser-accelerated carbon ions in dense plasma

Jieru Ren, Bubo Ma, Lirong Liu +39

We report on charge state measurements of laser-accelerated carbon ions in the energy range of several MeV penetrating a dense partially ionized plasma. The plasma was generated by…

Conceptual Design of the International Axion Observatory (IAXO)

E. Armengaud, F. T. Avignone, M. Betz +85

The International Axion Observatory (IAXO) will be a forth generation axion helioscope. As its primary physics goal, IAXO will look for axions or axion-like particles (ALPs) origin…
