Proton accelerators driven with ultra-intense short pulse lasers provide proton beams with extraordinary characteristics. The extreme acceleration fields (typically exceeding TV/m) allow very compact accelerators (acceleration lengths on the micrometer scale) to reach energies of 10s of MeV with up to 2 1013 particles per bunch and excellent spatial beam quality (transverse emittance). The...

Oral
In the last years, ion-shaping technique has been proposed as an innovative and powerful tool to manipulate matter at the nanometer scale. Deformation can be indirectly induced by embedding metallic NPs into an ion-deformable amorphous host matrix. With this technique, it is possible to transform nanospheres into nanorods, nanowires, facetted nanoparticles, or other original shapes. The aspect...

11 - Simulations
Oral
Nanometer-sized noble metallic particles embedded in dielectric matrices have attracted a great deal of attention. They are used in many applications mostly due to surface plasmon resonance which has dependence on their size and shape. Therefore, efforts have been made to vary their size and shape by various methods during or after fabrication. Swift heavy ion irradiation has been found to be...

Physical processes involved in the interaction of ion beams in Warm Dense Matter (WDM) (i.e. 1 - 100 eV, 0.01-100 g/cc) is fundamental to the understanding of condensed matter, solid-state physics, fusion sciences, and astrophysical phenomena. In particular, in the WDM regime the charge equilibrium and stopping power of ions differs significantly from that of both cold matter and ideal plasma...
