Abstract The development of high intensity petawatt lasers has created new possibilities for ion acceleration and nuclear fusion using solid targets. In such laser-matter interaction, multiple species are accelerated with broad spectra up to hundreds MeV. To measure yields identification, CR-39 solid-state track detectors frequently used. However, these limited in their applicability multi-ion differentiation as standard image recognition algorithms can lead a misinterpretation data, there...
A double plasma-mirror (DPM) system including reflective spherical optics in a telescope configuration is implemented to adapt the focal spot size of multi-Petawatt (PW) laser beam resulting intensity adjustability. The optimized minimize aberrations at plane, which ensures high-quality spot. dedicated imaging used evaluate focus quality and measure total reflectivity DPM multi-PW-level. Temporal contrast enhancement reflected additionally demonstrated, as evidenced by higher particle yield...
