Characteristics of Branched Flows of High-Current Relativistic Electron Beams in Porous Materials
K. Jiang, T. W. Huang, R. Li +1
Branched flow is a universal phenomenon in which treebranch-like filaments form through traveling waves or particle flows in irregular mediums. Branched flow of high-current relati…
Branching of high-current relativistic electron beam in porous materials
K. Jiang, T. W. Huang, R. Li +5
Propagation of high-current relativistic electron beam (REB) in plasma is relevant to many high-energy astrophysical phenomena as well as applications based on high-intensity laser…
Coherent subcycle optical shock from superluminal plasma wake
H. Peng, T. W. Huang, K. Jiang +7
We propose a new mechanism for generating coherent subcycle optical pulse by directing a relativistic electron beam (REB) into a plasma with a density up-ramp. The subcycle pulse i…
Transport dynamics study of laser-accelerated proton beams and design of double achromatic beam translation system
J. G. Zhu, H. Y. Lu, Y. Zhao +4
Proton beams generated from laser acceleration show merit for their unique spatial (micron-size) and temporal (picosecond) properties, which make them desirable for many potential…
Where have all the interstellar silicon carbides gone?
Tao Chen, C. Y. Xiao, Aigen Li +1
The detection of the 11.3-micron emission feature characteristic of the Si--C stretch in carbon-rich evolved stars reveals that silicon carbide (SiC) dust grains are condensed in t…
Branched flow of intense laser light in plasma with uneven density distribution
K. Jiang, T. W. Huang, C. N. Wu +7
Branched flow is an interesting phenomenon that can occur in diverse systems. It is usually linear in the sense that the flow does not alter the medium properties. Branched flow of…
Magnetic field amplification to the gigagauss scale via dynamos driven by femtosecond lasers
K. Jiang, A. Pukhov, C. T. Zhou
Reaching gigagauss magnetic fields opens new horizons both in atomic and plasma physics. At these magnetic field strengths, the electron cyclotron energy becomes compa…
Direction and divergence control of laser-driven energetic proton beam using a disk-solenoid target
K. Jiang, C. T. Zhou, T. W. Huang +9
A scheme for controlling the direction of energetic proton beam driven by intense laser pulse is proposed. Simulations show that a precisely directed and collimated proton bunch ca…
Multidimensional effects on proton acceleration using high-power intense laser pulses
K. D. Xiao, C. T. Zhou, K. Jiang +10
Dimensional effects in particle-in-cell (PIC) simulation of target normal sheath acceleration (TNSA) of protons are considered. As the spatial divergence of the laser-accelerated h…
Injection dynamics of direct-laser accelerated electrons in a relativistic transparency regime
K. Jiang, C. T. Zhou, T. W. Huang +4
The dynamics of electron injection in the direct laser acceleration (DLA) regime was investigated by means of three-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations and theoretical analysi…
