High resolution bremsstrahlung and fast electron characterization in ultrafast intense laser–solid interactions

The scaling of the intensity, angular and material dependence of bremsstrahlung radiation from an intense ( I  > 10 ^18  W cm ^−2 ) laser–solid interaction has been characterized at energies between 100 keV and 1 MeV. These are the first high resolution ( E /Δ E  > 200) measurements of bremsst...
