“…On the other hand, ion beams are useful for medical ion cancer therapy, basic particle physics, controlled nuclear fusion, high-energy sources, and so on [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10] . The energy of ions, which are accelerated in an interaction between an intense laser pulse and a gas target, is over a few tens of MeV [11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25] . The issues in laser ion acceleration include ion beam collimation [10,11,15] , ion energy spectrum control, ion production efficiency [24,25] , ion energy control, and ion beam bunching.…”
