Spin-dependent two-color Kapitza-Dirac effects
Scot McGregor, Wayne Cheng-Wei Huang, Bradley A. Shadwick +1
In this paper we present an analysis of the spin behavior of electrons propagating through a laser field. We present an experimentally realizable scenario in which spin-dependent e…
Hamiltonian fluid reduction of the 1.5D Vlasov-Maxwell equations
Cristel Chandre, Bradley A. Shadwick
We consider the Vlasov-Maxwell equations with one spatial direction and two momenta, one in the longitudinal direction and one in the transverse direction. By solving the Jacobi id…
Noise and error analysis and optimization in particle-based kinetic plasma simulations
E. G. Evstatiev, J. M. Finn, B. A. Shadwick +1
We analyze the noise in macro-particle methods used in plasma physics and fluid dynamics, leading to approaches for minimizing the total error, focusing on electrostatic models in…
