Abstract:
Angular distribution of protons is measured from ethanol droplet spray irradiated by linearly polarized 150 fs laser pulses at an intensity of 1.1 x 10(16)W/cm2. Fast protons (with energies >16 keV ) with an anisotropic distribution can be observed only in or near the polarization plane of the laser fields, while the slow protons (with energies
