Abstract Wakefield acceleration has been considered a possible mechanism for producing cosmic rays, including extremely high-energy ions, especially in astrophysical environments. In the laboratory, however, laser-driven wakefield acceleration of ions remains challenging because ions are much heavier than electrons. A central issue is how ions enter the accelerating field.
