Kination and the Inert Doublet Model
Geneviève Bélanger, Nicolás Bernal, Andreas Goudelis +1
The inert doublet model is a two-Higgs-doublet extension of the standard model that provides a minimal and versatile framework for frozen-out dark matter. Assuming standard cosmolo…
Efficient Simulation of Electron-Positron Pair Production in Foam Targets in the low χ-Regime
Oliver Mathiak, Lars Reichwein, Alexander Pukhov
The generation of electron-positron pairs using direct laser-accelerated electrons and a cone-shaped reflector target for the generation of strong electromagnetic fields is investi…
Long Living Hot and Dense Plasma from Relativistic Laser-Nanowire Array Interaction
Ehsan Eftekhari-Zadeh, Mikhail Gyrdymov, Parysatis Tavana +13
Long-living, hot and dense plasmas generated by ultra-intense laser beams are of critical importance for laser-driven nuclear physics, bright hard X-ray sources, and laboratory ast…
Galilean Electromagnetic Particle-in-Cell Code
Alexander Pukhov, Nina Elkina, Tom Wilson
We introduce a Galilean electromagnetic particle-in-cell (GEM-PIC) algorithm, which transforms the full set of Maxwell equations and the Vlasov equation into the boosted coordinate…
Electron-positron pair generation using a single kJ-class laser pulse in a foam-reflector setup
Oliver Mathiak, Lars Reichwein, Alexander Pukhov
We investigate the process of creating electron-positron pairs from laser-matter interaction in pre-ionised foam targets using particle-in-cell simulations. A high-intensity laser…
Laguerre-Gaussian pulses for spin-polarized ion beam acceleration
Lars Reichwein, Tong-Pu Yu, Alexander Pukhov +1
Polarized particle sources have a plethora of applications, ranging from deep-inelastic scattering to nuclear fusion. One crucial challenge in laser-plasma interaction is maintaini…
Interaction of Laguerre-Gaussian laser pulses with borane targets of different hydrogen-boron ratio
Lars Reichwein, Alexander Pukhov, Markus Büscher
We study the interaction of high-intensity Laguerre Gaussian laser pulses with hydrogen-boron compounds targets using 3D particle-in-cell simulations. The ratio of hydrogen to boro…
Design Initiative for a 10 TeV pCM Wakefield Collider
Spencer Gessner, Jens Osterhoff, Carl A. Lindstrøm +198
This document outlines a community-driven Design Study for a 10 TeV pCM Wakefield Accelerator Collider. The 2020 ESPP Report emphasized the need for Advanced Accelerator R\&D, and…
Fast matter-antimatter separation via Weibel-induced plasma filamentation
Oliver Mathiak, Lars Reichwein, Alexander Pukhov
We study the separation of matter and antimatter driven by the growth of the Weibel instability in a matter-antimatter plasma. The plasma under consideration comprises protons and…
