Abstract
Fast electrons emission from the interaction of femtosecond laser pulses with shaped solid targets has been studied. It is found that the angular distributions of the forward fast electrons are closely dependent upon the target shape. The important role played by the electrostatic fields built up near the target surfaces in the confinement of fast electrons is identified. Our two-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations can reproduce the main observations.
