Efficient post-acceleration of protons in helical coil targets driven by sub-ps laser pulses

The characteristics of laser driven proton beams can be efficiently controlled and optimised by employing a recently developed helical coil technique, which exploits the transient self-charging of solid targets irradiated by intense laser pulses. Here we demonstrate a well collimated (<1° diverge...
