Characteristics of neutron beams from deuterated targets irradiated by intense sub-ps lasers

The generation of energetic neutron beams by d(d,n)^{3}He reactions during the interaction of an intense laser with micron-thick deuterated plastic targets is investigated through two-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations equipped with nuclear reaction formalism. The capability of modeling neutro...
