Heavy Ions Acceleration Driven by Intense Lasers

07/02 2024 Seminar
  • Title Heavy Ions Acceleration Driven by Intense Lasers
  • Speaker Pengjie Wang (HZDR)
  • Date 16:00 Jul. 2, 2024
  • Venue 6620 【Tencent Meeting】494-135-619
  • Abstract
    In recent years, the demonstration of accelerating heavy ions from relativistic plasmas to energies, which are conducive for many applications, really stand for the maturity of Laser plasma acceleration (LPA) to be capable of accelerating nearly all kinds of particles like what traditional accelerators can do. Moreover, such heavy ion beams driven by lasers have some unique features that traditional accelerators do not have, which provide an additional tool/platform to study nuclear physics, laboratory astrophysics, high-energy-density physics and cancer therapy. 

    Biography
    Dr. Pengjie Wang is currently a postdoctoral researcher at Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf (HZDR), Germany. Before that, he was a postdoc in CNR-INO (National Institute of Optics), Italy. He received his PhD from Peking University in 2021. His research interests cover laser plasma physics, laser-driven ion acceleration, advanced target fabrication, diagnosis of ion beams and plasmas, high energy density physics (HEDP).
