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 10W/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.

We discovered a new high-order harmonic generation regime in the interaction of multi-TW relativistic-irradiance femtosecond lasers with gas jet targets. The spectra consisting of hundreds of even and odd harmonic orders are generated by either linearly or circularly polarized pulses. We proposed a new harmonic generation mechanism, where the harmonics are collectively emitted by oscillating electron spikes, whose sharpness and stability are explained by catastrophe theory.
