Artificial collimation of fast-electron beams with two laser pulses
A scheme for artificially collimating fast-electron beams produced in high intensity (>1019Wcm-2) laser-solid interactions is proposed. The scheme uses a laser pulse at the relativistic threshold (1018Wcm-2) that precedes the high intensity pulse to pregenerate a collimating magnetic field. T...
