      abstract     = {We recently proposed a new technique of plasma tailoring by
                      laser-driven hydrodynamic shockwaves generated on both sides
                      of a gas jet [J.-R. Marquès et al., Phys. Plasmas 28,
                      023103 (2021)]. In the continuation of this numerical work,
                      we studied experimentally the influence of the tailoring on
                      proton acceleration driven by a high-intensity
                      picosecond-laser, in three cases: without tailoring, by
                      tailoring only the entrance side of the ps-laser, or both
                      sides of the gas jet. Without tailoring the acceleration is
                      transverse to the laser axis, with a low-energy exponential
                      spectrum, produced by Coulomb explosion. When the front side
                      of the gas jet is tailored, a forward acceleration appears,
                      that is significantly enhanced when both the front and back
                      sides of the plasma are tailored. This forward acceleration
                      produces higher energy protons, with a peaked spectrum, and
                      is in good agreement with the mechanism of Collisionless
                      Shock Acceleration (CSA). The spatio-temporal evolution of
                      the plasma profile was characterized by optical shadowgraphy
                      of a probe beam. The refraction and absorption of this beam
                      was simulated by post-processing 3D hydrodynamic simulations
                      of the plasma tailoring. Comparison with the experimental
                      results allowed to estimate the thickness and near-critical
                      density of the plasma slab produced by tailoring both sides
                      of the gas jet. These parameters are in good agreement with
                      those required for CSA.},
