摘要:

采用新型气膜靶研究了靶法向鞘层加速(TNSA)机制下的激光等离子体质子加速。靶的设计是为了达到更高的激光强度在箔平面由于相对论自聚焦和气体层中的脉冲的自压缩。数值3D粒子模拟(PIC)被用来研究脉冲在气体中的传播,峰值强度增加了近7倍。在实验中,最大质子能量显示出对激光通过气体的能量传输的高度依赖性,对脉冲的大小和形状的依赖性较小。在高气体密度下,激光能量耗尽和脉冲畸变抑制了质子能量。在低密度下,观察到自聚焦,并且用气体测量到相当或更高的质子能量。

英文摘要:

Laser-plasma proton acceleration was investigated in the Target Normal Sheath Acceleration (TNSA) regime using a novel gas-foil target. The target is designed for reaching higher laser intensity at the foil plane owing to relativistic self-focusing and self compression of the pulse in the gas layer. Numerical 3D particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations were used to study pulse propagation in the gas, showing a nearly seven-fold increase in peak intensity. In the experiment, maximum proton energies showed high dependence on the energy transmission of the laser through the gas and a lesser dependence on the size and shape of the pulse. At high gas densities, laser energy depletion and pulse distortion suppressed proton energies. At low densities, self-focusing was observed and comparable or higher proton energies were measured with the gas.
