Beam quality improvement in the later stage of radiation pressure acceleration

It is known that high quality proton beams can be produced in the radiation pressure acceleration (RPA) by using a circularly polarized ultraintense super-Gaussian laser. However, a transverse mismatching phenomenon between the laser intensity profile and the particle spatial distribution appears in...
