By using a two-dimensional particle-in-cell simulation,we demonstrate a scheme for highenergy-density electron beam generation by irradiating an ultra intense laser pulse onto an aluminum(Al) target.With the laser having a peak intensity of 4?×?1023W cm~(-2),a high quality electron beam with a maximum density of 117 ncand a kinetic energy density up to8.79?×?1018J m~(-3) is generated.The temperature of the electron beam can be 416 Me V,and the beam divergence is only 7.25°.As the laser peak intensity increases(e.g.,1024 W cm~(-2)),both the beam energy density(3.56?×?1019J m~(-3)) and the temperature(545 Me V) are increased,and the beam collimation is well controlled.The maximum density of the electron beam can even reach 180 nc.Such beams should have potential applications in the areas of antiparticle generation,laboratory astrophysics,etc.
By using a two-dimensional particle-in-cell simulation, we demonstrate a scheme for highenergy-density electron beam generation by irradiating an ultra intense laser pulse onto an aluminum (Al) target. Having the laser having a peak intensity of 4 × ? 1023W cm -2, a high quality electron beam with a maximum density of 117 nc and a kinetic energy density up to 8.79? × 1018J m -3 is generated. The temperature of the electron beam can be 416 Me V, and the beam divergence is only 7.25 °. As the laser peak intensity increases (eg, 1024 W cm -2), both the beam energy density (3.56 × 1019 J m -3) and the temperature (545 Me V) are increased, and the beam collimation is well controlled. maximum intensity of the electron beam can reach 180 nc.Such beams should have potential applications in the areas of antiparticle generation, laboratory astrophysics, etc.
