Mapping the self-generated magnetic fields due to thermal Weibel instability

Chaojie Zhang, Yipeng Wu, Mitchell Sinclair +15

Weibel-type instability can self-generate and amplify magnetic fields in both space and laboratory plasmas with temperature anisotropy. The electron Weibel instability has generall…

Thermal Weibel instability induced magnetic fields co-exist with linear wakes in laser-ionized plasmas

Yipeng Wu, Audrey Farrell, Mitchell Sinclair +12

When a moderately intense, few-picoseconds long laser pulse ionizes gas to produce an underdense plasma column, a linear relativistic plasma wave or wake can be excited by the self…

Electron Weibel instability induced magnetic fields in optical-field ionized plasmas

Chaojie Zhang, Yipeng Wu, Mitchell Sinclair +14

Generation and amplification of magnetic fields in plasmas is a long-standing topic that is of great interest to both plasma and space physics. The electron Weibel instability is a…

Collider-quality electron bunches from an all-optical plasma photoinjector

Arohi Jain, Jiayang Yan, Jacob R. Pierce +11

We present a novel approach for generating collider-quality electron bunches using a plasma photoinjector. The approach leverages recently developed techniques for the spatiotempor…
