Ion acceleration from the shock front induced by hole boring in ultraintense laser-plasma interactions
Ion-acceleration processes were studied in ultraintense laser plasma interactions for normal incidence irradiation of solid targets. Neutron spectroscopy was used for the purpose of analysis. It was found that the ions are preferentially accelerated radially. Results show that the laser pedestal gen...
