Low divergence proton beams from a laser-plasma accelerator at kHz repetition rate
Proton beams with up to 100 pC bunch charge, 0.48 MeV cutoff energy, and divergence as low as 3° were generated from solid targets at kHz repetition rate by a few-mJ femtosecond laser under controlled plasma conditions. The beam spatial profile was measured using a small aperture scanning time-of-fl...
