Cyclotrons and Fixed-field Alternating-gradient Accelerators
This article describes particle accelerators using magnets whose field strengths are fixed in time to steer and focus ion beams in a spiral orbit so that they pass between (and can be accelerated by) the same electrodes many times. The first example of such a device, Lawrence’s cyclotron, revolutionized nuclear physics in the 1930s, but was limited in energy by relativistic effects. To overcome...
متن کاملDense blocks of energetic ions driven by multi-petawatt lasers
Laser-driven ion accelerators have the advantages of compact size, high density, and short bunch duration over conventional accelerators. Nevertheless, it is still challenging to simultaneously enhance the yield and quality of laser-driven ion beams for practical applications. Here we propose a scheme to address this challenge via the use of emerging multi-petawatt lasers and a density-modulate...
متن کاملUpgrade of the nhelix laser system at GSI
The first high energy laser system that became operational at GSI is the ”nanosecond high energy laser for heavy ion experiments” (nhelix). This system has recently been improved significantly. Due to major changes in the system layout, the quality in terms of temporal and spatial beam homogeneity was improved, while at the same time the output energy was raised up to 120 J. This could be achie...
متن کاملQuasi-monoenergetic laser-plasma acceleration of electrons to 2 GeV
Laser-plasma accelerators of only a centimetre's length have produced nearly monoenergetic electron bunches with energy as high as 1 GeV. Scaling these compact accelerators to multi-gigaelectronvolt energy would open the prospect of building X-ray free-electron lasers and linear colliders hundreds of times smaller than conventional facilities, but the 1 GeV barrier has so far proven insurmounta...
متن کاملEffect of membrane on power density of ethanol/O2 biofuel cell
A biofuel cell is a device for converting chemical energy to electrical energy by a simple way. A high-impact anode is prepared in this research. Here, carboxylated multiwall carbon nanotube (COOH-MWCNT), polydiallyldimethyl ammonium chloride (PDDA) and alcohol dehydrogenase were cast on modified glassy carbon with polymethylene green to construct the bioanode for ...
متن کاملDevelopment and Demonstration of Large-Aperture Tiled-Grating Compressors for the OMEGA EP Petawatt-Class Laser System
LLE Review, Volume 115 113 Introduction The OMEGA EP chirped-pulse–amplification system at LLE requires two 1.5-m large-aperture grating compressors to achieve high-energy petawatt capability.1 The current state-ofthe-art multilayer dielectric (MLD) diffraction gratings cannot meet this size requirement.2 Several institutes have explored the possibility of tiling gratings.3–6 Kessler and Cotel ...
