Ion acceleration driven by ultra-short ultra-intense laser pulses
Laser driven ion sources are being foreseen as promising candidate for many potential applications. This thesis presents the results of ion acceleration investigated in the regime of ultra-high intensity (>1020 W/cm2). ultra -short (50 fs) and ultra-high contrast laser pulse interaction with soli...
