Intensity scaling limitations of laser-driven proton acceleration in the TNSA-regime

Intensity scaling limitations of laser-driven proton acceleration in the TNSA-regime

We report on experimental results on laser-driven proton acceleration using high-intensity laser pulses. We present power law scalings of the maximum proton energy with laser pulse energy and show that the scaling exponent ξ strongly depends on the scale length of the preplasma, which is affected by...
