Query: Laser acceleration of ion beams   We consider methods of charged particle acceleration by means of
high-intensity lasers. As an application we discuss a laser booster for heavy
ion beams provided, e.g. by the Dubna nuclotron. Simple estimates show that a
cascade of crossed laser beams would be necessary to provide additional
acceleration to gold ions of the order of GeV/nucleon.
