@misc{oai:repo.qst.go.jp:00080575, author = {Dover, NicholasPeter and Dover, NicholasPeter}, month = {Sep}, note = {High power laser systems are an attractive driver for compact energetic ion sources. We demonstrate repetitive acceleration at 0.1 Hz of proton beams up to 40 MeV from a reeled tape target irradiated by ultra-high intensities up to 5×1021 Wcm2 and laser energies ≈ 15 J using the J-KAREN-P laser system. We investigate the stability of the source and its behaviour with laser spot focal size. We compare the scaling of proton energy with laser energy to a recently developed analytical model, and also demonstrate that it is possible to reach energies up to 50 MeV on a single shot with a lower laser energy ≈ 10 J by using a thinner target, motivating development of high repetition targetry suitable for thinner targets., OPTO2020}, title = {Demonstration of repetitive energetic proton generation from ultra-intense laser interactions with a tape target}, year = {2020} }
