Issues in Radiation Pressure Acceleration
Radiation Pressure Acceleration by circularly polarized laser pulses has been proposed and widely investigated theoretically as a promising scheme for efficient generation of ions. In particular, the use of ultrathin targets may allow to reach energies per nucleon beyond the GeV range. The first, recently reported experiments appear to confirm the basic mechanism and i...
متن کاملLarge-scale peculiar motions and cosmic acceleration
Observers with small, but finite, peculiar velocities relative to the Hubble flow can measure a negative deceleration parameter, although the universe may be actually decelerating. The effect is local but it can affect large enough scales to give the impression that the whole universe had recently entered an accelerated phase. We outline the key features of the accelerating mechanism and discus...
متن کاملWakefield Acceleration by Radiation Pressure in Relativistic Shock Waves
A particle acceleration mechanism by radiation pressure of precursor waves in a relativistic shock is studied. For a relativistic, perpendicular shock with the upstream bulk Lorentz factor of γ1 ≫ 1, large amplitude electromagnetic (light) waves are known to be excited in the shock front due to the synchrotron maser instability, and those waves can propagate towards upstream as precursor waves....

متن کاملRadiation Pressure effects on ion Acceleration on the GEMINI laser
We report on the absolute calibration of amicro channel plate (MCP) detector, installed asdetector in a Thomson parabola spectrometer. Thecalibration delivers the relation between a registeredcount numbers in the CCD camera (on which the MCPphosphor screen is imaged) as a result of the impact ofan ion beam onto the MCP. The particle response ofthe whole detection...
