A Vlasov Code Simulation of the Amplification of Seed Pulses by Brillouin Backscattering in Plasmas
We use an Eulerian Vlasov code to study the problem of the amplification of seed pulses by Brillouin backscattering in the strong-coupling regime. In this process, there is an energy transfer, mediated by a resonant ion wave, from a long, high energy pump electromagnetic wave, to an initially counter-propagating ultra-short seed pulse. The code solves the onedimensional Vlasov-Maxwell set of eq...
متن کاملMultibeam stimulated brillouin scattering from hot, solid-target plasmas.
We report on multibeam, laser-plasma interaction experiments in plasmas relevant to future direct-drive-ignition experiments. Six interaction beams are incident on preformed plasmas containing critical density. Stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) shows strong evidence of electromagnetic wave seeding of side- and backscattering. The data are also consistent with shared ion waves driven by the ...
متن کاملAnalysis of Steady-State Brillouin Nonlinearity in High-Power Fiber Lasers
In the present work, a theoretical analysis of the first-order of stimulatedBrillouin scattering (SBS) in a double-clad (DC) ytterbium (Yb)-doped silica fiber laserin unidirectional pumping mode is presented.An accurate simulation for calculating SBS nonlinearity is performed by considering thecoupled differential rate equations for pump, signal and Stokes powers, as wel...
متن کاملMathematical Models for Laser-plasma Interaction
We address here mathematical models related to the Laser-Plasma Interaction. After a simplified introduction to the physical background concerning the modelling of the laser propagation and its interaction with a plasma, we recall some classical results about the geometrical optics in plasmas. Then we deal with the well known paraxial approximation of the solution of the Maxwell equation; we st...
متن کاملControlling stimulated brillouin backscatter with beam smoothing in weakly damped systems.
We derive an analytical estimate of the effect of temporal smoothing of laser beams on stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) in a regime relevant to indirect drive ignition. We predict a strong reduction of SBS in the gold plasma expanding from the Hohlraum wall with temporal smoothing. This is a new regime far above threshold where the time to reach convective saturation allows for an effectiv...
