Principle of proton generation The laser pulse is focused on the tantalum (Ta) target. Protons are accelerated from the surface layer of the hydrogen-stored Ta target. The angular and the energy distributions of generated protons are measured with five track detectors and the magneto-electric ion energy analyzer, respectively. On the right hand side, a proton signal is shown as an example.
