Particle energization in colliding subcritical collisionless shocks investigated in the laboratory

A. Fazzini, W. Yao, K. Burdonov +16

Colliding collisionless shocks appear in a great variety of astrophysical phenomena and are thought to be possible sources of particle acceleration in the Universe. To investigate…

Detailed characterization of laboratory magnetized super-critical collisionless shock and of the associated proton energization

W. Yao, A. Fazzini, S. N. Chen +19

Collisionless shocks are ubiquitous in the Universe and are held responsible for the production of non-thermal particles and high-energy radiation. In the absence of particle colli…

Laboratory evidence for proton energization by collisionless shock surfing

W. Yao, A. Fazzini, S. N. Chen +19

Charged particles can be accelerated to high energies by collisionless shock waves in astrophysical environments, such as supernova remnants. By interacting with the magnetized amb…

Expansion of a radially symmetric blast shell into a uniformly magnetized plasma

M E Dieckmann, Q Moreno, D Doria +7

The expansion of a thermal pressure-driven radial blast shell into a dilute ambient plasma is examined with two-dimensional PIC simulations. The purpose is to determine if laminar…

Quasi-perpendicular fast magnetosonic shock with wave precursor in collisionless plasma

Q. Moreno, M. E. Dieckmann, X. Ribeyre +1

A one-dimensional particle-in-cell (PIC) simulation tracks a fast magnetosonic shock over time scales comparable to an inverse ion gyrofrequency. The magnetic pressure is comparabl…

Impact of the electron to ion mass ratio on unstable systems in particle-in-cell simulations

Quentin Moreno, Mark Eric Dieckmann, Xavier Ribeyre +3

The evolution of the Buneman and two-stream instabilities driven by a cold dilute mildly relativistic electron beam is studied as a function of the ion\'\s charge-to-mass ratio. Th…

Dust environment and dynamical history of a sample of short period comets

F. J. Pozuelos, F. Moreno, F. Aceituno +53

Aims. In this work, we present an extended study of the dust environment of a sample of short period comets and their dynamical history. With this aim, we characterized the dust ta…
