Ion source perturbation and control in intense laser plasma interaction
We present here experimental results on the optimization of the mega-electronvolt ion source from the target front surface by using relativistic (1018 W/cm2) interactions with ultra-short laser pulses (50 fs). The source perturbation in the accelerated proton/ion beam was primarily controlled by the...
