Abstract
- This paper investigates the potential use of dielectric laser accelerators (DLAs) for nuclear security applications. For the first time, the LSP code is used to look at this application. LSP is a fast running, parallelized particle-in-cell code that includes space charge effects. The focus of this paper is to ascertain the order of magnitude, amount of charge, that can be driven through the accelerator. From these results, a recommendation on the potential of DLAs for nuclear security applications is given. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
