Enhanced proton flux in the MeV range by defocused laser irradiation
Thin Al foils (50 nm and 6μm) were irradiated at intensities of up to 2x1019Wcm−2 using high contrast (108) laser pulses. Ion emission from the rear of the targets was measured using a scintillator-based Thomson parabola and beam sampling ‘footprint’ monitor. The variation of the ion spectra and beam profile with focal spot size was systematically studied. The results show that while the maximu...
متن کاملOperation of the TRIUMF (20-500 MeV) Proton Irradiation Facility
The TRIUMF Proton Irradiation Facility can cover an energy range from below 20 MeV to 500 MeV using two extracted proton beam lines which operate into the same experimental area. The range of proton intensities is ideal for single event effect testing and high enough for some radiation damage testing of components. Neutrons, pions and higher intensity protons are also available at TRIUMF. Keywo...
متن کاملDesign of 100 Mev Proton Beam Irradiation Facility for the Pefp 100 Mev Linac *
The Proton Engineering Frontier Project (PEFP) will install a 100-MeV proton linear accelerator at Gyeong-ju site. For the beam commissioning of 100 MeV proton linac, the two target rooms (TR 103, TR 23) will be prepared as a starter among 10 target room. To design the irradiation equipment in TR 103, we have investigated general propagation shape and spatial distribution of proton beam, when 1...
متن کاملMeV proton flux predictions near Saturn's D ring
Radiation belts of MeV protons have been observed just outward of Saturn's main rings. During the final stages of the mission, the Cassini spacecraft will pass through the gap between the main rings and the planet. Based on how the known radiation belts of Saturn are formed, it is expected that MeV protons will be present in this gap and also bounce through the tenuous D ring right outside the ...
متن کاملMulti-MeV proton source investigations in ultraintense laser-foil interactions.
A study of the properties of multi-MeV proton emission from thin foils following ultraintense laser irradiation has been carried out. It has been shown that the protons are emitted, in a quasilaminar fashion, from a region of transverse size of the order of 100-200 microm. The imaging properties of the proton source are equivalent to those of a much smaller source located several hundred microm...
