Proton acceleration in transverse laser wake fields
- 1. Energy and Environmental Science, Graduate School of Engineering, Utsunomiya University, Utsunomiya, Tochigi (Japan)
Description
The possibility of accelerating protons by wake fields excited by ultrashort high-power lasers is discussed. The acceleration condition and energy gain of a proton injected in a transverse component of a laser wake field is investigated. The energy gain strongly depends on the initial phase to the laser wake field when protons are injected inside the field. (author)
