基于带电粒子活化法开展的SGⅡ-U皮秒激光质子加速实验研究

基于带电粒子活化测谱方法在SGⅡ-U装置上开展了皮秒激光靶背鞘场机制质子加速实验研究,对靶参数进行了优化.利用带电粒子活化测谱方法测量了相同激光条件、不同Cu薄膜靶厚度情况下靶背鞘场加速质子的最高截止能量、角分布、总产额以及激光能量到质子的转化效率等关键参数.实验发现,SGⅡ-U皮秒激光靶背鞘场加速机制的最佳Cu薄膜靶厚度为10 μm,对应质子最高能量接近40 MeV,质子（>4 MeV）总产额约4×10¹²个,激光能量到质子的转化效率约2%.薄膜靶更厚或者更薄都会降低加速质子的最高截止能量;当靶厚减薄至1 μm时,皮秒激光的预脉冲开始对靶背鞘场产生显著影响,质子最高截止能量急剧下降,高能质子束斑呈现空心结构;而当靶厚增加至35 μm时,虽然质子束的能量有所降低,但是质子束斑的均匀性更好.     

超薄靶激光质子加速实验研究

在超短超强飞秒SILEX-Ⅰ激光装置上,开展了薄膜靶激光质子加速的实验研究。实验发现激光预脉冲、靶厚度对质子加速有很大的影响。在激光强度3×1018~3×1019W/cm2条件下,采用前表面厚度为3μm铜、后表面镀4μm厚CH靶,质子的最大能量达到3.15 MeV。而对190 nm厚CH膜靶,质子的最大能量为0.54 MeV。初步研究了激光偏振对质子加速的影响,相同激光功率条件下,圆偏振激光加速产生的质子最大能量略低于P偏振打靶。这些结果与靶后鞘层加速机制相一致。

 根据超短超强激光与固体靶相互作用中质子靶前表面加速和靶后表面加速两种机制,对在SILEX-I激光器上进行的质子加速实验中获得的质子最大截止能量进行了估算,认为实验中质子产生的主要机制是靶后表面加速。同时结果表明：对该装置的实验条件,靶前表面加速机制可以产生质子的最大能量约为2 MeV;靶后表面加速机制可以产生的质子的最大能量约11 MeV。另外用Multi2005程序计算了激光器信噪比对靶后表面加速机制的影响。计算表明：SILEX-I激光器信噪比达到108∶1时,预脉冲对用5 μm靶时鞘层加速电场的影响可以忽略。

利用射频腔对激光加速质子能谱的优化

基于靶背鞘层加速机制（TNSA）产生的质子束具有宽能谱的特性,限制了其应用范围。为了产生准单能质子束,研究了基于直线加速器射频腔结构的质子能谱优化方法。在给定射频腔电压和频率情况下,计算了腔间距随优化能量的变化关系,并针对不同优化能量设计了不同大小的腔间距和腔数。在给定腔数情况下,发现只在某个能量附近可以获得单能性最好的单能峰。对能量接受范围进行了分析,要实现最终2%的能散,进入射频腔的质子束能散不能大于15%,并分析了射频腔频率对能量接受范围的影响。最后对PIC模拟得到的半高全宽为15%的一个能谱进行优化,获得了谱宽小于2%的准单色质子能谱。 .

ICP等离子体鞘层附近区域发光光谱特性分析

为了独立控制鞘层附近区域离子密度和离子能最分布,采用光发射谱(OES)测量技术,对不同射频功率、放电气压和基底偏压下感应耦合等离子体鞘层附近区域辉光特性进行了研究.原子谱线和离子谱线特性分析表明,在鞘层附近区域感应耦合等离子体具有较高的离子密度和较低的电子温度.改变放电气压和射频功率,对得到的光谱特性分析表明,鞘层附近区域离子密度随射频功率的增大而线性增大,在低压下随气压的升高而增大.低激发电位原子谱线强度增加迅速,高激发电位原子谱线强度增加缓慢,而离子谱线强度增加很不明显.改变基底直流偏压,对得到的发射光谱强度变化分析表明,谱线强度随基底正偏压的增加而增大.随着基底负偏压的加入,谱线强度先减小而后增大;直流偏压为-30 V时,光谱强度最弱.快速离子和电子是引起Ar激发和电离过程的主要能量来源.

Double electron capture cross-sections by protons in collisions with He

Double electron capture (DEC) by protons from He was studied in collisions at energies in the keV regime, theoretically and experimentally. Theoretical cross-sections were calculated using the electron nuclear dynamic approach and a binomial distribution method in the energy range 1–100 keV. Experimental cross-sections were measured by means of the grow-rate method in the energy range of 4–10 keV. The cross-sections measured are consistent with those of the previous data at the high energies of the measured interval and show a different trend for the low energy. This behavior is consistent with those of other DEC cross-sections measured by protons from He-like targets. With the two collision models, it is proven that the reference data for this system are consistent only with the assumption of uncorrelated electrons and with independent target-projectile nuclei dynamics.

Laser-accelerated protons with energy-dependent beam direction

The spatial distribution of protons, accelerated by intense femtosecond laser pulses interacting with thin target foils under oblique irradiation are investigated. Under certain conditions, the proton beams are directed away from the target normal. This deviation is towards the laser forward direction, with an angle that increases with the level and duration of the amplified spontaneous emission pedestal before the main laser pulse. In addition, for a given laser pulse, this beam deviation increases with proton energy. The observations are discussed in terms of different electron acceleration mechanisms and target normal sheath acceleration, in combination with a laser-controllable shock wave locally deforming the target rear surface.     

Energetic ion generation by Coulomb explosion in cluster gas and a low-density plastic foam with an intense femtosecond laser

The energy distributions of protons emitted from the Coulomb explosion of hydrogen clusters by an intense femtosecond laser have been experimentally obtained. Ten thousand hydrogen clusters were exploded, emitting 8.1-keV protons under laser irradiation of intensity 6 × 10¹⁶W/cm². The energy distributions are interpreted well by a spherical uniform cluster analytical model. The maximum energy of the emitted protons can be characterized by cluster size and laser intensity. The laser intensity scale for the maximum proton energy, given by a spherical cluster Coulomb explosion model, is in fairly good agreement with the experimental results obtained at a laser intensity of 10¹⁶–10¹⁷ W/cm² and also when extrapolated with the results of three-dimensional particle simulations at 10²⁰–10²¹ W/cm². Energetic proton generation in low-density plastic (C₅H₁₀) foam by intense femtosecond laser pulse irradiation has been studied experimentally and numerically. Plastic foam was successfully produced by a sol-gel method, achieving an average density of 10 mg/cm³. The foam target was irradiated by 100-fs pulses of a laser with intensity 1 × 10¹⁸ W/cm². A plateau structure extending up to 200 keV was observed in the energy distribution of protons generated from the foam target, with the plateau shape explained well by Coulomb explosion of lamella in the foam. The laser-foam interaction and ion generation were studied qualitatively by two-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations, which indicated that energetic protons are mainly generated by the Coulomb explosion. From the results, the efficiency of energetic ion generation in a low-density foam target by Coulomb explosion is expected to be higher than in a gas-cluster target.     

Study on energy loss of high-energy protons in nano crystalline Ni

A high-energy proton irradiation test was conducted on the electro-deposited nano Ni and the common coarse-grained Ni with different incident angles. The energy loss of the proton penetrating through the nano Ni was investigated. Results show that, high-energy protons exhibit higher residual energy after penetrating the nano Ni than those penetrating the coarse-grained Ni under the same sample thickness and irradiation condition. The high-energy protons lose less energy in grain boundaries during irradiation. The large amount of grain boundaries in nano Ni decreases the energy loss of the proton interacting with the test materials.     

多肽和蛋白质NMR预饱和实验中饱和转移效应的研究

通过改变预饱和照射时间研究了一些多肽和蛋白质分子在水溶液中的饱和转移效应.定量分析了在照射60s之后大分子中绝大多数酰胺质子仍不受影响的原因.结果表明:具有稳定的三维溶液结构的蛋白质(如溶菌酶)中,活泼氢的信号基本上不受饱和转移影响;对于溶液结构比较稳定的多肽和蛋白质(如胰岛素),只有少部分酰胺质子信号强度受到影响;小分子六肽因为溶液中不存在稳定的构象,饱和转移效应十分显著.因此对于溶液中多肽与蛋白质构象的NMR研究,预饱和仍不失为一种简便而有效的溶剂峰压制技术.     

Polarization of preequilibrium proton emission in the 93Nb + 14N reaction

Spin polarization of protons emitted at 20° and 40° in the ⁹³Nb + ¹⁴N reaction at 95 MeV has been measured by the double scattering method using a polarimeter particularly designed for protons having a continuous energy distribution.The result shows that the polarization is small for low-energy protons, but increases smoothly with the increase of proton energy, reaching around + 20 % at about 20 MeV in the center-of-mass system. Energy and angular distributions of protons measured in the same reaction indicate coexistence of equilibrium and preequilibrium components in the proton emission of interest, the fraction of the preequilibrium component increasing with the increasing proton energy. If we assume that protons emitted in equilibrium are completely unpolarized, and that the value of polarization (P) for the preequilibrium component is independent of proton energy, the present result is consistent with $\text{P ? + 22 \%}$ for the emission at 20° and $\text{P ? + 38 \%}$ for the emission at 40°.The result is discussed in terms of the hot-spot model for precompound decay.
