Abstract Research of the ionization loss of 50 GeV protons, the path of which in the depleted layer of the silicon detector was smoothly regulated in the range from 0.3 to 10 mm, is presented. In the experiment, we used a flat silicon detector with a fixed thickness of the depleted layer of 300 μm. The smooth regulation of the path was realized due to the variation of the angle between the surface of the detector and the incident proton beam. The comparison of experimental data and theoretical calculations of the ionization loss demonstrates agreement in all range of thicknesses. Results of the research can be used in order to control the angle between the surface of the detector and the incident beam of relativistic particles. Besides, the results can be used in the analysis of data from astrophysical silicon detectors of charged particles if high-energy particles crossed flat detectors at arbitrary angle.

AbstractThe rapid development of the optical-cycle-level ultra-fast laser technologies may break through the bottleneck of the traditional ultra-intense laser [i.e., Petawatt (PW, 1015 W) laser currently] and enable the generation of even higher peak-power/intensity lasers. Herein, we simulate an ultra-broadband concept for the realization of an Exawatt-class (EW, 1018 W) high peak-power laser, where the wide-angle non-collinear optical parametric chirped-pulse amplification (WNOPCPA) is combined with the thin-plate post-compression. A frequency-chirped carrier-envelope-phase stable super-continuum laser is amplified to high-energy in WNOPCPA by pumping with two pump-beamlets and injected into the thin-plate post-compression to generate a sub-optical-cycle high-energy laser pulse. The numerical simulation shows this hybrid concept significantly enhances the gain bandwidth in the high-energy amplifier and the spectral broadening in the post-compression. By using this concept, a study of a prototype design of a 0.5 EW system is presented, and several key challenges are also examined.

Abstract The ionization loss spectra of high-energy negatively charged particles which move in the planar channeling mode in a silicon crystal are studied with the use of numerical simulation. The case when the crystal thickness is on the order of the dechanneling length $$l_d$$ld is considered. It is shown that in this case the shape of the spectrum noticeably depends on $$l_d$$ld. The evolution of various characteristic parameters of the spectrum with the change of $$l_d$$ld is investigated. A method of the experimental determination of $$l_d$$ld on the basis of the measurement of the ionization loss spectrum is proposed.
