Abstract:Intense laser-driven proton pulses, inherently broadband and highly divergent, pose a challenge to established beamline concepts on the path to application-adapted irradiation field formation, particularly for 3D. Here we experimentally show the successful implementation of a highly efficient (50 % transmission) and tuneable dual pulsed solenoid setup to generate a homogeneous (8.5 % uniformity laterally and in depth) volumetric dose distribution (cylindrical volume of 5mm diameter and depth) at a single pulse… Show more
