In order to achieve a high-quality, i.e., monoenergetic, intense ion beam, we propose the use of double-layer target. The first layer, at target front, consists high-$Z$ atoms, while second (rear) layer is thin coating low-$Z$ atoms. generation high-quality proton beams from target, irradiated by an ultraintense laser pulse, demonstrated with three-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations.
An approach for accelerating ions, with the use of a cluster-gas target and an ultrashort pulse laser 150-mJ energy 40-fs duration, is presented.

Abstract Bulk niobium Superconducting Radio-Frequency cavities are a leading accelerator technology. Their performance is limited by the cavity loss and maximum acceleration gradient, which negatively affected vortex penetration into superconductor when peak magnetic field at wall surface exceeds ( H vp ). It has been proposed that coating inner of an SRF with superconducting thin films increases . In this work, we utilized Nb ellipsoid to simulate inverse investigate effect it magnesium...
Arguments in support of any particular superconducting coating must be framed terms its fundamental thermodynamic properties. The transition temperature, Tc, determines the surface resistance, and thus Q cavity. This remain sufficiently high that system can driven at required field gradients frequencies without leading to excessive power loss. In this regard 39 K Tc MgB2 is advantageous. With an anticipated maximum accelerating field, EaccMAX, 77 MV m−1 a BCS RsBCS (4 K, 500 MHz), 2.5 n Ω as...

Energetic ion beams are produced during the interaction of ultrahigh-intensity, short laser pulses with plasmas. These laser-produced have important applications ranging from fast ignition thermonuclear targets to proton imaging, deep lithography, medical physics, and injectors for conventional accelerators. Although basic physical mechanisms beam generation in plasma by pulse target common all these applications, each application requires a specific optimization properties, that is, an...

The mapping of outer wall temperature during the vertical test a superconducting radio-frequency (SRF) cavity has been one most useful tools to detect bad spots cavity. However, few systems except rotating-arm type have developed so far for 9- cell cavities. Since it will be an essential tool identify failure cavities, we started develop fixed- board-type system that enable us map 9-cell cavities in much shorter time than type.

Niobium (Nb) superconducting radio-frequency (SRF) cavities have become the technology of choice for many recent and future particle accelerators. Increasing their accelerating gradient beyond theoretical limit Nb (~50 MV/m) by coating multilayer thin film superconductors is our ultimate goal. This idea proposed Gurevich in 2005 based on assumption that lower critical magnetic field parallel to surface (Bc1//) increases with very films having a thickness close its penetration depth. We...
