High-Energy Ions in Laser-Plasma Interactions.
Abstract
A two-ion fluid, 1-D model is proposed to explain some features of the high energy ion distributions recently measured in laser-plasma interaction. The model describes the ambipolar expansion of hot electrons and two relatively cold ion species from a pressure gradient. The model accounts for the energy and relative behavior of high-energy ion species measured experimentally. (Author)
