Laser-driven ion acceleration can provide ultra-short, high-charge,low-emittance beams. Although undergoing extensive research, demonstratedmaximum energies for laser-ion sources are non-relativistic, complicatinginjection into high-$\beta$ accelerator elements and stopping short ofdesirable energies for pivotal applications, such as proton tumor therapy. Inthis work, we decouple the efforts towards relativistic beam energies from asingle laser-plasma source via a proof-of-principle concept, boosting the beaminto this regime through only a few plasma stages. We employ full 3Dparticle-in-cell simulations to demonstrate the capability for capture ofhigh-charge beams as produced by laser-driven sources, where both source andbooster stages utilize readily available laser pulse parameters.
