Observation of neutrons in the interaction of high intensity laser pulses with solid targets
We report an experimental study on fusion neutron generation from deuterated polyethylene (CD2)n target irradiated by 400 mJ, 45 femtosecond laser pulses focused to an intensity >1018 W/cm2. The fusion neutron signal has been detected using a CR-39 detector, a bubble detector, and also confirmed...
