Simulations of High-Energy-Density Physics Experiments at HHT Using SIS18 Uranium Beam
نویسنده
چکیده
This contribution presents numerical simulations of two recent High Energy Density (HED) physics experiments carried out at the GSI HHT experimental area using the SIS18 uranium beam. In one experiment, a solid lead target has been used while in the other case, a solid tungsten target has been considered. Our simulations show that with the existing beam parameters, one can achieve critical temperature in lead while the deposited energy is not sufficient to access the critical parameters of tungsten.

Influence of focal length and beam rigidity on final focusing at HHT
For future experiments on investigation of high-energydensity (HED) matter at GSI where an intense heavy ion beam and a petawatt laser beam from PHELIX will be used simultaneously, a new vacuum target chamber is required. Due to dimensions of the laser guiding and focusing optics, the new chamber has to be considerably larger than the presently installed at the HHT. It may therefore be necessar...

Intense heavy ion beams from the Gesellschaft für Schwerionenforschung ~GSI, Darmstadt, Germany! accelerator facilities, together with two high energy laser systems: petawatt high energy laser for ion experiments ~PHELIX! and nanosecond high energy laser for ion experiments ~NHELIX! are a unique combination to facilitate pioneering beam-plasma interaction experiments, to generate and probe high...
متن کاملHigh Intensity Uranium Operation in Sis18
In order to follow the requirements of the ongoing experimental program at GSI and later on of the planned operation as a booster for the Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research FAIR, the intensity of uranium beams in SIS18 must be enhanced significantly. The goals are to increase the number of particles per cycle up to the space charge limit and to enhance the average intensity by an increase...

متن کاملSimulations of HIHEX Experiments at FAIR Using Porous Material
Heavy Ion Heating and Expansion (HIHEX) technique [1, 2] has been proposed to study the equation-ofstate (EOS) of high-Energy-Density (HED) matter using intense uranium beam at the future Facilit for Antiprotons and Ion Research (FAIR) [3]. Previously we considered solid material for such studies whereas in the present work we use porous targets that are heated by the above ion beam. Numerical ...
