Investigations of Field Dynamics in Laser Plasmas with Proton Imaging
Laser-driven proton beams are nonetheless of their infancy yet have already got a few remarkable attributes in comparison to these produced in traditional accelerators. One such characteristic is the regularly low beam emittance. this permits very good answer in imaging purposes like proton radiography. This thesis describes a singular imaging strategy - the proton streak digicam - that the writer constructed and primary used to degree either the spatial and temporal evolution of ultra-strong electric fields in laser-driven plasmas.
