Quasimonoenergetic ion bunches from exploding microstructured targets
- Institute for Mathematical Modelling, Russian Academy of Sciences, Moscow 125047 (Russian Federation)
An analytic model is proposed for generating bunches of light ions up to relativistic energies via Coulomb explosion (CE) of symmetric microstructured targets in plane, cylindrical, and spherical geometries, and the conditions under which CE can exist in a single-flow regime are derived. The time evolution of the mean velocity, density distribution, and energy spectra for accelerated ions is studied, and the CE-driven quasimonoenergetic light ions from bilayered microstructured targets are reported.
