Research Abstract

Development of the method of emittance measurement of laser driven proton beam is carried out. The measurement of the 3D distribution of the magnetic field within PMQs, which are used in emittance measurement are carried out. The results aer reflected to the calculation of the 3D tracks of the particles through them. The improvement of the laser system brings us the stable proton beam upto 40MeV. Every necessary equipment is ready for the emittance measurements.
