شبیه‌سازی ذره‌ای شتاب دادن الکترون‌ها در پلاسمای کم چگال
One of the interesting Laser-Plasma phenomena, when the laser power is high and ultra intense, is the generation of large amplitude plasma waves (Wakefield) and electron acceleration. An intense electromagnetic laser pulse can create plasma oscillations through the action of the nonlinear pondermotive force. electrons trapped in the wake can be accelerated to high energies, more than 1 TW. Of t...
متن کاملStability of Ion Acceleration in a Plasma Dominated by the Radiation Pressure of an Electromagnetic Pulse
The electric fields produced by the interaction of ultra-short and ultra-intense laser pulses with a thin target make it possible to obtain multiMeV , high density, highly collimated proton and ion beams with duration in the sub-picosecond range. Critical features are the efficiency of the ion acceleration process and the energy spectrum of the produced ion beam. At high laser intensities the r...
متن کاملIntroduction to Plasma Accelerators : the Basics
In this article, we concentrate on the basic physics of relativistic plasma wave accelerators. The generation of relativistic plasma waves by intense lasers or electron beams in low-density plasmas is important in the quest for producing ultra-high acceleration gradients for accelerators. A number of methods are being pursued vigorously to achieve ultra-high acceleration gradients using various...
متن کاملAn ultracompact X-ray source based on a laser-plasma undulator.
The capability of plasmas to sustain ultrahigh electric fields has attracted considerable interest over the last decades and has given rise to laser-plasma engineering. Today, plasmas are commonly used for accelerating and collimating relativistic electrons, or to manipulate intense laser pulses. Here we propose an ultracompact plasma undulator that combines plasma technology and nanoengineerin...
متن کاملEnergetic Ions Generated by Laser Pulses - A Detailed Study on Target Properties
We present the results of a detailed study on the acceleration of intense ion beams by relativistic laser plasmas. The experiments were performed at the 100 TW laser at the Laboratoire pour L’Utilisation des Lasers Intenses (LULI). We investigated the dependence of the ion beams on the target conditions based on theoretical predictions by the target normal sheath acceleration (TNSA) mechanism. ...
