Abstract
Basic principles of the operation of laser-plasma multicharged ion sources are given. Specific features of the interaction of high-intensity laser beams with solids are discussed, together with formation and main characteristics of multicharged ion beams, such as charge state distribution, angular distribution, emittance and time structure, and the influence of magnetic fields. Laser ion sources constructed for linear accelerators, synchrotrons, and cyclotrons are presented and experimental data are compared with theoretical considerations.
