Rutherford Appleton Laboratory Three mechanisms interact to cause ion acceleration in PW laser interactions Relativistic electrons expelled by the ponderomotive pressure of light wave. To overcome the attractive electric field of the ions, E e > E c. The Coloumb energy E c is approximately E c 2 2 ne 2 l s R Later the ions move due to Coloumb repulsion. E i 4 2 ne 2 R 2 R laser lsls Inductive electric field caused by the rapid change in the B field that accelerates ions and decelerates electrons. The energy gained by this process is E i 8 e 2 n R 2

Rutherford Appleton Laboratory Sophisticated 3D simulations performed by Prof. S.Bulanov and co-workers has revealed that for linear polarisation case the ion energy is p x = 0.61m i c Conclusion: at intensities Wcm -2, ~10 12 protons are accelerated with energies of several hundred MeV 3D computer simulations of ion acceleration process

Rutherford Appleton Laboratory The energy gain over the interaction length in a plasma wakefield is When I 2 >> Wcm -2 m 2, the radiation pressure is so large nearly all electrons are expelled from the photon wave-envelope, generating a snow- plough in which the electron momentum gain is provided the laser pulse fully interacts with the plasma (i.e. not diffracted) Accelerating gradients 200 TeV/cm at Wcm 2 Wakefield acceleration
