Beamed neutron emission driven by laser accelerated light ions

Highly anisotropic, beam-like neutron emission with peak flux of the order of 10 ^9 n/sr was obtained from light nuclei reactions in a pitcher–catcher scenario, by employing MeV ions driven by a sub-petawatt laser. The spatial profile of the neutron beam, fully captured for the first time by employi...
