#Imaging magnetic instabilities using laser accelerated protons
“#Imaging magnetic instabilities using laser accelerated protons” Protons accelerated by laser-plasma interaction in a first target (left) pass through a second target, itself irradiated by another laser beam (middle and framed). The Weibel instability induced there by energetic electrons (blue trajectories) generates magnetic fluctuations that deflect the protons onto a series of sensitive films (right),…
