We have demonstrated proton acceleration up to 40 MeV from um thick metal foils irradiated by 7.5 J, 200 TW laser pulses of the J-KAREN laser at KPSI, JAEA at the on-target intensity of 10 $^{21}$ W/cm. This intensity level is also consistent with the measured electron temperature ranged from 10 to 16 eV. 40 MeV is a new record for the maximum energy of protons accelerated with relatively small-scale (less than 10 J) lasers.
