Interaction of intense lasers with nm thick targets provides an attractive regime for the
acceleration of ions of all types. Acceleration of heavy ions however is undermined in the …

Image plates (IPs) are a popular detector in the field of laser driven ion acceleration, owing
to their high dynamic range and reusability. An absolute calibration of these detectors to …

Imaging plates (IPs) are valuable tools for measuring the intensity of ionizing radiation such
as x-rays, electrons, and ions. In this work, we measured the sensitivity of IPs to carbon ions …

Laser-driven ion acceleration is a new, rapidly developing field of research and one of the
important applications of ultrafast high-peak-power lasers. In this acceleration method …

Im Rahmen dieser Doktorarbeit werden drei Schwerpunkte behandelt: 1) Die hocheffektive
Beschleunigung von Elektronen und Protonen durch die Wechselwirkung von …

Ionoacoustics refers to the measurement of acoustic waves excited by ions as they slow
down in matter. One particularly interesting application is the monitoring of individual laser …
