Observation of a highly directional γ-ray beam from ultrashort, ultraintense laser pulse interactions with solids

Novel measurements of electromagnetic radiation above 10 MeV are presented for ultra intense laser pulse interactions with solids. A bright, highly directional source of y rays was observed directly behind the target. The y rays were produced by bremsstrahlung radiation from energetic electrons gene...
