Filamentation instability of counterstreaming laser-driven plasmas.
Filamentation due to the growth of a Weibel-type instability was observed in the interaction of a pair of counterstreaming, ablatively driven plasma flows, in a supersonic, collisionless regime relevant to astrophysical collisionless shocks. The flows were created by irradiating a pair of opposing plastic (CH) foils with 1.8 kJ, 2-ns laser pulses on the OMEGA EP Laser System. Ultrafast laser-dr...
متن کاملThe Dispersion Relation for Electrostatic Fluctuations in Weakly Inhomogeneous Plasmas
Along the last few years we have conducted several investigations on waves in inhomogeneous plasmas, using the concept of effective dielectric tensor, which has been proposed as the correct dielectric tensor for the description of dielectric properties of inhomogeneous plasmas [1]. Among these investigations, we have considered cases where the magnetic field is homogeneous and other plasma para...
متن کاملMagnetic Field Evolution in Relativistic Unmagnetized Collisionless Shocks
We study relativistic unmagnetized collisionless shocks using unprecedentedly large particle-in-cell simulations of two-dimensional pair plasma. High energy particles accelerated by the shock are found to drive magnetic field evolution on a timescale & 10 plasma times. Progressively stronger magnetic fields are generated on larger scales in a growing region around the shock. Shock-generated mag...
متن کاملNon-Relativistic Limit of Neutron Beta-Decay Cross-Section in the Presence of Strong Magnetic Field
One of the most important reactions of the URCA that lead to the cooling of a neutron star, is neutron beta-decay ( ). In this research, the energy spectra and wave functions of massive fermions taking into account the Anomalous Magnetic Moment (AMM) in the presence of a strong changed magnetic field are calculated. For this purpose, the Dirac-Pauli equation for charged and neutral fermions is ...
متن کاملStokes-vector evolution in a weakly anisotropic inhomogeneous medium.
The equation for evolution of the four-component Stokes vector in weakly anisotropic and smoothly inhomogeneous media is derived on the basis of a quasi-isotropic approximation of the geometrical optics method, which provides the consequent asymptotic solution of Maxwell's equations. Our equation generalizes previous results obtained for the normal propagation of electromagnetic waves in strati...
