Laser Ion Acceleration: Status and Perspectives for Fusion
High power short-pulse lasers presently reach peak powers of a few hundred Terawatts up to a Petawatt, and routinely reach focal intensities of 1018 - 1021 W/cm2 . These lasers are able to produce various secondary radiation, from relativistic electrons and multi-MeV/nucleon ions to high-energetic...
