Measurements of the ion emission from targets irradiated with neodymium glass and iodine lasers were analysed and a very significant abserved. The fastest ions with high charge number Z which usually are of MeV energy following the relativistic self-focusing and nonlinear-force acceleration theory, were reduced to less than 50-times lower energies when 1.2ps laser pulses of about 1 Joule were incident.
