Proof-of-principle demonstration of high efficiency laser-assisted H^{-} beam conversion to protons
Thin carbon foils are used as strippers for charge exchange injection into high intensity proton rings. However, the stripping foils become radioactive and produce uncontrolled beam loss, which is one of the main factors limiting beam power in high intensity proton rings. Recently, we presented a sc...
