Description for Investigations of Field Dynamics in Laser Plasmas with Proton Imaging
Hardback. Laser-driven proton beams are in their infancy. This book describes a novel imaging technique - the proton streak camera - that the author first used to measure both the spatial and temporal evolution of ultra-strong electrical fields in laser-driven plasmas. Series: Springer Theses. Num Pages: 140 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PHFP; PHM; PHP. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 15. Weight in Grams: 405.
Laser-driven proton beams are still in their infancy but already have some outstanding attributes compared to those produced in conventional accelerators. One such attribute is the typically low beam emittance. This allows excellent resolution in imaging applications like proton radiography. This thesis describes a novel imaging technique - the proton streak camera - that the author developed and first used to measure both the spatial and temporal evolution of ultra-strong electrical fields in laser-driven plasmas. Such investigations are of paramount importance for the understanding of laser-plasma interactions and, thus, for optimization of laser-driven particle acceleration. In particular, the present work ... Read more
