Focussing Protons from a Kilojoule Laser for Intense Beam Heating using Proximal Target Structures

Focussing Protons from a Kilojoule Laser for Intense Beam Heating using Proximal Target Structures

Abstract Proton beams driven by chirped pulse amplified lasers have multi-picosecond duration and can isochorically and volumetrically heat material samples, potentially providing an approach for creating samples of warm dense matter with conditions not present on Earth. Envisioned on a larger scale...
