Abstract: The formation of a high-energy ($\sim35\,$keV) beam of negative hydrogen ions was observed in the expanding femtosecond laser plasma produced at the surface of a solid target by radiation with an intensity of up to $2\times10^{16}\,$W/cm$^2$. The energy spectra of the H$^+$ and H$^-$—ions show a high degree of correlation.
