Reentrant cone angle dependence of the energetic electron slope temperature in high-intensity laser-plasma interactions

Energy spectra of fast electrons, generated when high-intensity laser pulses irradiated hollow conical targets, have been measured experimentally. It is shown here that the slope temperature of the fast electrons is strongly dependent on the opening angle of the cone, and has a maximum value at 25°....
