Comparison of measured and simulated proton distributions. In a–d, the 3D (φ, θ, r) momentum distributions of protons are integrated along the radial coordinate and the retrieved two-dimensional (φ, θ) density map is spanned over a unit sphere. The coordinates θ and φ are defined in Fig. 5 and a detailed description of the projection is given in the Supplementary Note 1. The number of protons per solid angle is encoded in the color scale. a Measured and b simulated distribution for the 110 nm particles. c Measured and d simulated distribution for the 300 nm particles. e Comparison of the measured momentum distribution along the propagation direction (solid blue line) with the simulated distribution (dashed line) for the 110 nm particles. f Same comparison along the polarization direction. g, h Same as e, f but for the 300 nm particles. The dotted lines correspond to the retrieved dissociation yield distributions
