Axion generation and detection in laser-plasma wakefields
Xiangyan An, Min Chen, Jianglai Liu +4
The axions are compelling candidates for cold dark matter, but their extremely weak interaction with photons makes laboratory searches challenging. We show that the quasi-static el…
Modeling of bound electron effects in particle-in-cell simulation
Xiangyan An, Min Chen, Zheng-Ming Sheng +1
To include the bound electron effects in particle-in-cell (PIC) simulation, we propose a model in which the response of the dipole components of partially ionized ions to external…
Tail-wave-assisted Positron Acceleration in Nonlinear Laser Plasma Wakefields
Wei-Yuan Liu, Xing-Long Zhu, Min Chen +4
Relativistic laser wakefield acceleration is characterized by an unsurpassed accelerating gradient, which is very suitable for electron acceleration over short distances and could…
Bunched proton acceleration from a laser-irradiated cone target
Xing-Long Zhu, Wei-Yuan Liu, Min Chen +4
Laser-driven ion acceleration is an attractive technique for compact high-energy ion sources. Currently, among various physical and technical issues to be solved, the boost of ion…
Aligned copper nanorod arrays for highly efficient generation of intense ultra-broadband THz pulses
S. Mondal, Q. Wei, W. J. Ding +9
We demonstrate an intense broadband terahertz (THz) source based on the interaction of relativistic-intensity femtosecond lasers with aligned copper nanorod array targets. For copp…
Modeling of photon and pair production due to quantum electrodynamics effects in particle-in-cell simulation
W. -M. Wang, Z. -M. Sheng, P. Gibbon +1
We develop the particle-in-cell (PIC) code KLAPS to include the photon generation via the Compton scattering and electron-positron creation via the Breit-Wheeler process due to qua…
