Acceleration of Heavy Ions by Ultrafast High-Peak-Power Lasers: Advances, Challenges, and Perspectives

Laser-driven ion acceleration is a new, rapidly developing field of research and one of the important applications of ultrafast high-peak-power lasers. In this acceleration method, extremely strong electric fields, induced by an ultrafast laser in the plasma generated by the laser–target interaction...
