Ion acceleration by superintense laser-plasma interaction (2013, methodology): “Several other parametric investigations of the dependence of Emax on laser pulse irradiance, duration, energy, and fluence have been reported (Fuchs et al., 2006b; Nayuki et al., 2006; Robson et al., 2007; Flippo, Workman et al., 2008; Flacco et al., 2010) as well as attempts in interpreting part…”
Collisionless shocks in laser-produced plasma generate monoenergetic high-energy proton beams (2011, background): “At present, the two most studied mechanisms for laser-driven ion acceleration are target-normal sheath acceleration (TNSA; refs&nbs”
Laser-driven particle and photon beams and some applications (2010, background): “There have been two important recent publications on how the proton energy scales with laser intensity up to the highest petawatt laser–plasma interactions studied (Fuchs et al 2006, Robson et al 2007).”
The scaling of proton energies in ultrashort pulse laser plasma acceleration (2010, background): “The open diamond (9) represents a 5 J experiment at Janusp [26], and the dotted diamonds (10) show the results of an energy scan applying up to 10 J on the target and at LULI [8].”
Extremely high-intensity laser interactions with fundamental quantum systems (2011, background): “For laser intensities in the range 1018-1021 W/cm2 and for solid targets with a thickness ranging from a few to tens of micrometers, the so-called target-normal-sheath acceleration is the main mechanism (Fuchs et al., 2006).”
