A micronozzle for proton acceleration
from Paperleap podcast Hosted by Paperleap
Researchers in Japan and India have developed a novel technique, micronozzle acceleration (MNA), that generates high-energy proton beams using microscopic nozzles and intense laser pulses. This innovative approach achieves 1 GeV proton energies in a device only a few microns across, potentially revolutionizing cancer treatment, physics research, and energy technology by enabling smaller, cheaper, and more accessible particle accelerators.
