The Project LILIA (ligth ions laser induced acceleration) is an experiment now running at LNF (Frascati) with the goal of producing a real proton beam able to be driven for significant distances (50-75 cm) away from the interaction point and which will act as a source for further accelerating structures. In this paper we report the description of the experimental set-up and the very preliminary results of the laser interaction with a spécifie target. The goal consists on the study of the correlation of the maximum TNSA (target normal shift acceleration) accelerated proton energy with respect to the following parameters: • Laser pulse intensity (in the range 10 18 - 5×1019 W/cm2) • Laser pulse energy (in the range 0.1-5 J) • Laser pulse length (in the range 25 fs- lps) • Metallic target thickness (in the range 1-10 microns). © 2013 IEEE.

Abstract
The Project LILIA (ligth ions laser induced acceleration) is an experiment now running at LNF (Frascati) with the goal of producing a real proton beam able to be driven for significant distances (50-75 cm) away from the interaction point and which will act as a source for further accelerating structures. In this paper we report the description of the experimental set-up and the very preliminary results of the laser interaction with a spécifie target. The goal consists on the study of the correlation of the maximum TNSA (target normal shift acceleration) accelerated proton energy with respect to the following parameters: • Laser pulse intensity (in the range 10 18 - 5×1019 W/cm2) • Laser pulse energy (in the range 0.1-5 J) • Laser pulse length (in the range 25 fs- lps) • Metallic target thickness (in the range 1-10 microns). © 2013 IEEE.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
