Electron acceleration in intense laser – solid interactions at parallel incidence

Using multidimensional particle-in-cell simulations, we show that an electron beam with a huge space charge can be accelerated to high energies by irradiating the edge of a solid density target with an intense femtosecond laser pulse at parallel incidence. The process of energy gain of each electron...
