Fragmentation and stopping of heavy cluster ions in a lithium target
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 09 March 2009
Abstract
Correlated stopping of N ion debris flowing at same velocity in a lithium target is worked out from the Basbas-Ritchie model of 2-cluster stopping in degenerate electron jellium. A very large energy loss enhancement is demonstrated. It is strongly modulated by the ions' topological arrangement. Relevance to inertial fusion driven by intense cluster ion beam is stressed.
