Laser generation of proton beams for the production of short-lived positron emitting radioisotopes
Protons of energies up to 37 MeV have been generated when ultra-intense lasers (up to 1020Wcm-2) interact with hydrogen containing solid targets. These protons can be used to induce nuclear reactions in secondary targets to produce β+-emitting nuclei of relevance to the nuclear medicine community, n...
