Automation of Target Delivery and Diagnostic Systems for High Repetition Rate Laser-Plasma Acceleration

Fast solid target delivery and plasma-ion detection systems have been designed and developed to be used in high intensity laser-matter interaction experiments. We report on recent progress in the development and testing of automated systems to refresh solid targets at a high repetition rate during h...
