Modeling of a Liquid Leaf Target TNSA Experiment Using Particle-In-Cell Simulations and Deep Learning

Figure 11

Simulation of laser incidence angles between 0° and 85°. The plot shows the incidence angle versus the relative absorption of a laser into a hydrogen plasma target (dotted red line) as well as the maximum proton kinetic energy behind the target (blue solid line). The laser impinges on the target with p-polarized fields. Classical resonance absorption, also known as the desinov curve [46], is shown as a dashed line.
