Relativistic solitary waves modulating long laser pulses in plasmas
G. Sánchez-Arriaga, E. Siminos, E. Lefebvre
This article discusses the existence of solitary electromagnetic waves trapped in a self-generated Langmuir wave and embedded in an infinitely long circularly polarized electromagn…
Nonlinear envelope equation and nonlinear Landau damping rate for a driven electron plasma wave
Didier Bénisti, Olivier Morice, Laurent Gremillet +1
In this paper, we provide a theoretical description, and calculate, the nonlinear frequency shift, group velocity and collionless damping rate, , of a driven electron plasma wav…
Quasimonoenergetic electron beams produced by colliding cross-polarized laser pulses in underdense plasmas
C. Rechatin, J. Faure, A. Lifschitz +3
The interaction of two laser pulses in an underdense plasma has proven to be able to inject electrons in plasma waves, thus providing a stable and tunable source of electrons. Wher…
Exact relativistic kinetic theory of an electron beam-plasma system: hierarchy of the competing modes in the system parameter space
A. Bret, L. Gremillet, D. Benisti +1
Besides being one of the most fundamental basic issues of plasma physics, the stability analysis of an electron beam-plasma system is of critical relevance in many areas of physics…
Measurement of XUV-absorption spectra of ZnS radiatively heated foils
Nikolaos Kontogiannopoulmos, Serena Bastiani-Ceccotti, Frédéric Thais +7
Time-resolved absorption of zinc sulfide (ZnS) and aluminum in the XUV-range has been measured. Thin foils in conditions close to local thermodynamic equilibrium were heated by rad…
Equation-of-state model for shock compression of hot dense matter
J. C. Pain
A quantum equation-of-state model is presented and applied to the calculation of high-pressure shock Hugoniot curves beyond the asymptotic fourfold density, close to the maximum co…
