Measurement and modelling of fast electron transport in solid materials

This thesis presents an investigation into the properties of relativistic electron beams generated by the interaction between an intense laser and a solid density target. Described are novel x-ray spectroscopic techniques for measuring the electron beam divergence, electron currents and to explore t...
