Chromatic, Geometric and Space Charge Effects on Laser Accelerated Protons Focused by a Solenoid
We studied numerically emittance and transmission effects by chromatic and geometric aberrations, with and without space charge, for a proton beam behind a solenoid in the laser proton experiment LIGHT at GSI. The TraceWin code was employed using a field map for the solenoid and an initial distribution with exponential energy dependence close to the experiment. The results show a strong effect ...
متن کاملLaser-accelerated protons with energy-dependent beam direction.
The spatial distribution of protons, accelerated by intense femtosecond laser pulses interacting with thin target foils under oblique irradiation are investigated. Under certain conditions, the proton beams are directed away from the target normal. This deviation is towards the laser forward direction, with an angle that increases with the level and duration of the amplified spontaneous emissio...
متن کاملEnergy optimization procedure for treatment planning with laser-accelerated protons.
A simple analytical model is found that predicts the exact proton spectrum needed to obtain a spread-out-Bragg peak (SOBP) distribution for laser-accelerated proton beams. The theory is based on the solution to the Boltzmann kinetic equation for the proton distribution function. The resulting analytical expression allows one to calculate the SOBP proton energy spectra for the different beamlet ...

متن کامل3D-flow modeling of laser-accelerated protons and electric field reconstruction
The irradiation of foil targets with ultra-intense short laser pulses leads to the generation of MeV ion beams from the non-irradiated target rear side [1]. The ions, mostly protons originating from contaminants, form a collimated beam with an exponential energy spectrum falling to high energies and a sharp cut-off at up to 60 MeV, depending on the laser parameters. With special target cleaning...
