Cell behaviour in ultra-high dose rate environments, characteristic of laser driven ion acceleration, is a largely unexplored field of research, the understanding of which is crucial …
The sustained interest in laser-driven neutron sources comes from their compactness and affordability while opening the possibilities for a wide range of applications, potentially …
Since the first studies of target-normal sheath acceleration around the year 2000, production of energetic ion beams from intense laser-matter interactions has been investigated in great …
The interaction of a high intensity laser pulse with a thin solid target can drive the acceleration of protons and other heavier ions to multi MeV energies. The resulting ion …
