Lithium beam‐driven target experiments at 1015 W/g on PBFA II at Sandia National Laboratories

A lithium beam is focused to an intensity 1–2 TW/cm2. The beam divergencies have been measured as low as 23 mrad. This lithium beam has the specific power deposition of ∼10 W/g, the beam‐driven target experiments have achieved radiation temperature of 58 eV.(AIP)
