High efficiency laser-assisted H^{-} charge exchange for microsecond duration beams

Laser-assisted stripping is a novel approach to H^{-} charge exchange that overcomes long-standing limitations associated with the traditional, foil-based method of producing high-intensity, time-structured beams of protons. This paper reports on the first successful demonstration of the laser strip...
