Radiation reaction cooling as a source of anisotropic momentum distributions with inverted populations

Pablo J. Bilbao, Luis O. Silva

Under the presence of strong electromagnetic fields and radiation reaction, plasmas develop anisotropic momentum distributions, characterized by a population inversion. This is a g…

Constructing precisely quasi-isodynamic magnetic fields

Alan Goodman, Katia Camacho Mata, Sophia A Henneberg +6

We present a novel method for numerically finding quasi-isodynamic stellarator magnetic fields with excellent fast-particle confinement and extremely small neoclassical transport.…

Exact solutions for the electromagnetic fields of a flying focus

D. Ramsey, A. Di Piazza, M. Formanek +10

The intensity peak of a "flying focus" travels at a programmable velocity over many Rayleigh ranges while maintaining a near-constant profile. Assessing the extent to which these f…

Bose-Einstein condensation of photons in microcavity plasmas

J. L. Figuiredo, H. Terças, J. T. Mendonça

Bose--Einstein condensation of a finite number of photons propagating inside a plasma-filled microcavity is investigated. The nonzero chemical potential is provided by the electron…

Benchmarking between fluid and global models for low-pressure oxygen DC glow discharges

Pedro Viegas, Tiago Cunha Dias, Chloé Fromentin +6

This work focuses on the benchmarking between a zero-dimensional (0D) global model (LoKI) and a one-dimensional (1D) radial fluid model for the positive column of oxygen DC glow di…

Study of vibrational kinetics of CO2 and CO in CO2-O2 plasmas under non-equilibrium conditions

C. Fromentin, T. Silva, T. C. Dias +4

This work explores the effect of O2 addition on CO2 dissociation and on the vibrational kinetics of CO2 and CO under various non-equilibrium plasma conditions. A self-consistent mo…
