Acceleration in vacuum of bare nuclei by tightly focused radially polarized laser light

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Fields of a radially polarized petawatt laser beam, represented by a truncated series in the diffraction angle ϵ to order ϵ15 and focused to subwavelength waist radius, are shown to accelerate protons and bare nuclei to several hundred MeV per nucleon over a distance equivalent to a few laser wavelengths.
