Evanescent-wave proton postaccelerator driven by intense THz pulse
Hadron therapy motivates research dealing with the production of particle beams with ∼100 MeV/nucleon energy and relative energy fluctuation on the order of 1%. Laser-driven accelerators produce ion beams with only tens of MeV/nucleon energy and an extremely broad spectra. Here, a novel method is p...
