Applications of laser-plasma electron accelerators:point-scanning radiotherapy and high resolution radiography of dense objects

Electron beams generated by laser plasma interaction are applied to several applications. We have chosen two representative applications which emphasize the importance of this electron source, one is the use of this energetic electron beam for treatment planning of tumors, and other is the high reso...

Zusammenfassung:Electron beams generated by laser plasma interaction are applied to several applications. We have chosen two representative applications which emphasize the importance of this electron source, one is the use of this energetic electron beam for treatment planning of tumors, and other is the high resolution /spl gamma/-ray radiography of dense objects. Monte-Carlo simulation is also presented.
