Collisionless shock acceleration of narrow energy spread ion beams from mixed species plasmas using 1  μm lasers

Collisionless shock acceleration of narrow energy spread ion beams from mixed species plasmas using 1  μm lasers

Collisionless shock acceleration of protons and C^{6+} ions has been achieved by the interaction of a 10^{20}  W/cm^{2}, 1  μm laser with a near-critical density plasma. Ablation of the initially solid density target by a secondary laser allows for systematic control of the plasma profile. This enab...
