Suitability and robustness of triangular nanostructured targets for proton acceleration
Manuel Blanco, M. T. Flores-Arias, Marija Vranic
Ion acceleration in the MeV range can be routinely achieved with table-top laser technology. One of the current challenges is to improve the energy coupling from the laser to the p…
Extremely intense laser-based electron acceleration in a plasma channel
Marija Vranic, Ricardo A. Fonseca, Luis O. Silva
Laser pulses of extreme intensities () are about to become available in the laboratory. The prepulse of such a laser can induce a plasma expansion that…
Are we ready to transfer optical light to gamma-rays?
Marija Vranic, Thomas Grismayer, Sebastian Meuren +2
Scattering relativistic electrons with optical lasers can result in a significant frequency upshift for the photons, potentially producing -rays. This is what linear Compton sca…
Multi-GeV electron-positron beam generation from laser-electron scattering
Marija Vranic, Ondrej Klimo, Georg Korn +1
The new generation of laser facilities is expected to deliver short (10 fs - 100 fs) laser pulses with 10 - 100 PW of peak power. This opens an opportunity to study matter at extre…
Collimated protons accelerated from an overdense gas jet irradiated by a 1 micron wavelength high-intensity short-pulse laser
S. N. Chen, M. Vranic, T. Gangolf +13
We have investigated proton acceleration in the forward direction from a near-critical density hydrogen gas jet target irradiated by a high intensity (10^18 W/cm^2), short-pulse (5…
