Comparison of Characteristics of Proton Beams Accelerated by a Short Laser Pulse with an Energy of about 2 J from Ultrathin Foils and Targets with Preplasma
Three-dimensional numerical simulations are used to study the characteristics of proton beams accelerated by a short laser pulse from thin foils and targets with preplasma. The preplasma parameters are calculated using the FRONT hydrodynamic code, which simulates three-dimensional target expansion under the action of a nanosecond pulse (prepulse).
