Conclusions

02/07/2014

Majority of secondary protons still have large energies ~100 GeV -> is this a problem for the mirror?

~100 GeV protons should create a lot of additional secondary particles in that mirror

New Simulations are needed, where the mirror should be included.

Bigger the spot size → Higher the blow-up

Particle maps are available for further tracking studies

Procedure for the evaluation of the Em. Blow up is still under revision

What is really important for what’s downstream?Are the tails important for the plasma cell?Can they perturb the plasma?
