High energy implementation of coil-target scheme for guided re-acceleration of laser-driven protons
Original language description
Developing compact ion accelerators using intense lasers is a very active area of research, motivated by a strong applicative potential in science, industry and healthcare. However, proposed applications in medical therapy, as well as in nuclear and particle physics demand a strict control of ion energy, as well as of the angular and spectral distribution of ion beam, beyond the intrinsic limitations of the several acceleration mechanisms explored so far. Here we report on the production of highly collimated (∼0.2 ∘ ∼0.2∘ half angle divergence), high-charge (10s of pC) and quasi-monoenergetic proton beams up to ∼ ∼ 50 MeV, using a recently developed method based on helical coil targetry. In this concept, ions accelerated from a laser-irradiated foil are post-accelerated and conditioned in a helical structure positioned at the rear of the foil.
