Schollmeier, Marius; Geissel, Matthias; Sefkow, Adam B.; Kimmel, Mark; Rambo, Patrick K.; Schwarz, Jens; Atherton, B.

The outline of this presentation: (1) Proton acceleration with high-power lasers - Target Normal Sheath Acceleration concept; (2) Proton acceleration with mass-reduced targets - Breaking the 60 MeV threshold; (3) Proton beam divergence control - Novel focusing target geometry; and (4) New experimental capability development - Proton radiography on Z.
