Towards optical polarization control of laser-driven proton acceleration in foils undergoing relativistic transparency

Intense laser pulse interaction with ultra-thin foils constitutes a promising approach for proton acceleration. Here the authors show that the degree of ellipticity in the laser beam polarization can be used to control the proton beam profile.
