Journal ArticleDOI
Target normal sheath acceleration: theory, comparison with experiments and future perspectives
TL;DR: In this paper, an analytical description of the target normal sheath acceleration (TNSA) mechanism is discussed, and a theoretical model is developed to investigate the maximum ion energy as a function of laser parameters.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ultra-low density carbon foams produced by pulsed laser deposition
TL;DR: In this article, the authors report on the manufacturing of ultra-low density carbon foam produced by pulsed laser deposition and obtain carbon foam layers having tunable mean density and thickness in the range 1-1000mg/cm 3 and 5-80 μm, respectively.

TL;DR: Experimental strategies for facilitating the very short and intense pulses from an X-ray laser for the purpose of imaging small bioparticles carries the potential for structure determination at atomic resolution without the need for crystallization.

Matteo Passoni,Alessandro Zani,Alessandro Zani,Andrea Sgattoni,David Dellasega,Andrea Macchi,Irene Prencipe,Vincent Floquet,Philippe Martin,Tatiana V. Liseykina,T. Ceccotti +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, the experimental feasibility of the laser-driven ion acceleration concept with multi-layered, foam-based targets has been investigated, and the results of two-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations, supporting the interpretation of the experimental results, and directions to exploit the concept also at ultrahigh intensities, are presented.
