Enhanced target normal sheath acceleration of protons from intense laser interaction with a cone-tube target

Journal Article Xiao, K. D. ; Huang, T. W. ; Zhou, C. T., E-mail: zcangtao@iapcm.ac.cn ; ... - AIP Advances

Laser driven proton acceleration is proposed to be greatly enhanced by using a cone-tube target, which can be easily manufactured by current 3D-print technology. It is observed that energetic electron bunches are generated along the tube and accelerated to a much higher temperature by the combination of ponderomotive force and longitudinal electric field which is induced by the optical confinement of the laser field. As a result, a localized and enhanced sheath field is produced at the rear of the target and the maximum proton energy is about three-fold increased based on the two-dimentional particle-in-cell simulation results. It is demonstratedmore »« less

Study of relativistic electron beam production and transport in high-intensity laser interaction with a wire target by integrated LSP modeling

Journal Article Wei, M S ; Pasley, J ; Beg, F N ; ... - Physics of Plasmas

The results of a numerical study of high-intensity short-pulse laser interaction with wire targets are presented. Fast electron production and transport in solid density plasma is modeled using the implicit hybrid particle-in-cell code LSP [D. R. Welch et al., Phys. Plasmas 13, 063105 (2006)]. These simulations were performed with realistic target size and laser parameters and over times much longer than the laser pulse. Nonlinear interaction processes, i.e., microchanneling and density steepening, have been observed. The spectrum of the relativistic electrons produced has a reduced slope temperature compared to that predicted by ponderomotive scaling. Preformed underdense plasma has been foundmore »« less

Enhanced proton acceleration by intense laser interaction with an inverse cone target

Journal Article Bake, Muhammad Ali ; Aimidula, Aimierding ; Xiaerding, Fuerkaiti ; ... - Physics of Plasmas

The generation and control of high-quality proton bunches using focused intense laser pulse on an inverse cone target is investigated with a set of particle-in-cell simulations. The inverse cone is a high atomic number conical frustum with a thin solid top and open base, where the laser impinges onto the top surface directly, not down the open end of the cone. Results are compared with a simple planar target, where the proton angular distribution is very broad because of transverse divergence of the electromagnetic fields behind the target. For a conical target, hot electrons along the cone wall surface inducemore »« less

Effect of plasma peak density on energetic proton emission in ultrashort high-intensity laser-foil interactions

Journal Article Xiaofang, Wang ; Nemoto, Koshichi ; Nayuki, Takuya ; ... - Physics of Plasmas

The influence of plasma peak density on energetic proton emission from the rear side of a foil irradiated by a 70-fs intense laser pulse at normal incidence has been studied. When the plasma peak density of the foil is overdense, forward energetic proton emission is dominant and attributed to rear surface acceleration. Along with the plasma peak density changed from overdense to underdense, a transition of proton acceleration from the forward to the radial direction is observed, and in the latter case energetic protons are emitted radially and slightly forward.
