Numerical investigation of spallation neutrons generated from petawatt-scale laser-driven proton beams

Laser-driven neutron sources could offer a promising alternative to those based on conventional accelerator technologies in delivering compact beams of high brightness and short duration. We examine this through particle-in-cell and Monte Carlo simulations that model, respectively, the laser acceler...
