Times Cited Count:59 Percentile:87.48(Physics, Applied)A pair of conventional permanent magnet quadrupoles is used to focus a 2.4 MeV laser-driven proton beam at a 1 Hz repetition rate. The magnetic field strengths are 55 T/m and 60 T/m for the first and second quadrupoles respectively. The proton beam is focused to a spot size (full width at half maximum) of 2.78 mm at a distance of 650 mm from the source. This result is in good agreement with a Monte Carlo particle trajectory simulation.

Times Cited Count:5 Percentile:39.34(Physics, Nuclear)Generating a multidimensional crystalline beam in a storage ring has been known to be difficult without a special cooling force, i.e., tapered cooling, because of the momentum dispersion induced by bending magnets. It is, however, possible to eliminate the dispersion all around the ring by adding an electric dipole field in each magnetic bending region. A storage ring with such unique deflectors should enable us to reach multidimensional crystalline states with an ordinary "untapered" cooling force. In order to verify this expectation, molecular dynamics simulations are performed to study beam crystallization in several dispersion-free storage rings including the S-LSR at Kyoto University. The present results show that various crystalline states can be established without relying on the tapered force.

By applying the RF filed to the high intensity short pulse laser-driven MeV proton beam, we have demonstrated the generation of the quasi-monoenegetic proton spectra and modification of the spatial distribution of proton beams. We used J-KAREN laser system at the JAEA. We focused it to Polyimide target. The intensity was 410Wcm. We produced repetetively the proton beams with the maximum energy of 2.2 MeV. We guided this proton beam to the cabvity of the RF field. We observed significant energy peaks in the proton energy spectra. The resultant energy concentration was 11 % (FWHM) out of 100 %. At the same time, we could change the divergence of the beam with the RF field. According to the Monte-Carlo simulation, the spatially converging proton beam has energy spectra with the energy spread of 100 %, on the contrary the spatially diverging beam has mono-energetic energy spectra. This method is very useful because it can apply to repetitivelly produced proton beams to control the energy as well as spatial distributions.

A laser-driven proton beam with a maximum energy of a few MeV is stably obtained using an ultra-short and high-intensity Titanium Sapphire laser. As compared with the proton beam from the conventional accelerator, this proton beam exhibits peculiar characteristics, such as, more than 10 protons per bunch are produced within a short pulse duration of ps at a source, resulting in a very high peak current. It also exhibits a very low transverse emittance. The proton beam has a divergence angle of 10 degrees and energy spread of 100%. It accompanies electrons and X-rays, which is produced simultaneously. Making the best use of these peculiar characteristics, many possible applications of the laser-driven proton are proposed. In order to make practical laser-driven proton beam for the applications, we carry out series of experiments. We have successfully obtained simultaneous imaging of the target with proton and X-ray or proton and electron beams. In the course of practical use of the proton beam for specific applications, characteristics above should be optimized based on the variations of the applications. For example, in order to apply the laser-driven proton beam for the proton irradiation system, such as used in the medical or the industrial applications, we should obtain focused or parallel proton beam. One of our plans to alter the orbits of the laser-driven protons from the planer tape target is using permanent quadrupole magnets.
