Wavelength modulation laser-induced fluorescence for plasma characterization

Ivan Romadanov, Yevgeny Raitses, Andrei Smolyakov

Laser-Induced Fluorescence (LIF) spectroscopy is an essential tool for probing ion and atom velocity distribution functions (VDFs) in complex plasmas. VDFs carry information about…

Beyond Strang: A practical assessment of some second-order 3-splitting methods

Raymond J. Spiteri, Arash Tavassoli, Siqi Wei +1

Operator splitting is a popular divide-and-conquer strategy for solving differential equations. Typically, the right-hand side of the differential equation is split into a number o…

A Theoretical Thrust Density Limit for Hall Thrusters

Jacob Simmonds, Yevgeny Raitses, Andrei Smolyakov

Hall Thrusters typically operate at thrust densities on the order of 10 N/m2, which is well below the thrust density limits discussed in previous literature. These limits have been…

The electron cyclotron drift instability: a comparison of particle-in-cell and continuum Vlasov simulations

Arash Tavassoli, Mina Papahn Zadeh, Andrei Smolyakov +2

The linear and nonlinear characteristics of the electron cyclotron drift instability (ECDI) have been studied through the particle-in-cell (PIC) and continuum Vlasov simulation met…
