Alpha particle production from novel targets via laser-driven proton-boron fusion

Novel targets were implemented in the beam-driven (in-target) proton-boron fusion with beneficial characteristics (chemical composition and density) compared to the commonly used boron nitride. A fusion-generated alpha particle flux of up to (5×10^{7}sr^{−1}J^{−1}) was generated via the proton-boron...
