Abstract: In this paper, we present experimental results concerning (1) the study of hot electrons emerging from the rear side of a target irradiated by ultra-short laser pulses and the K(alpha) radiation related to the interaction of the hot electrons with the cold target, (2) the production of energetic electrons in laser plasma acceleration experiment and their use for photonuclear material activation.
