Radiation induced acceleration of ions in a laser irradiated transparent foil
Radiation friction can have a substantial impact on electron dynamics in a transparent target exposed to a strong laser pulse. In particular, by modifying quiver electron motion, it can strongly enhance the longitudinal charge separation field, thus inducing ion acceleration. We present a model and...
