Raman backscatter as a remote laser power sensor in high-energy-density plasmas
J. D. Moody, D. J. Strozzi, L. Divol +11
Stimulated Raman backscatter (SRS) is used as a remote sensor to quantify the instantaneous laser power after transfer from outer to inner cones that cross in a National Ignition F…
Threshold for Electron Trapping Nonlinearity in Langmuir Waves
D. J. Strozzi, E. A. Williams, H. A. Rose +3
We assess when electron trapping nonlinearity is expected to be important in Langmuir waves. The basic criterion is that the inverse of the detrapping rate nu_d of electrons in the…
Convective Raman Amplification of Light Pulses Causing Kinetic Inflation in Inertial Fusion Plasmas
Ian N. Ellis, David J. Strozzi, Benjamin J. Winjum +5
We perform 1D particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations using OSIRIS, which model a short-duration (~500/ω0 FWHM) scattered light seed pulse in the presence of a constant counter-propagat…
Ray-based calculations of backscatter in laser fusion targets
D. J. Strozzi, E. A. Williams, D. E. Hinkel +3
A 1D, steady-state model for Brillouin and Raman backscatter from an inhomogeneous plasma is presented. The daughter plasma waves are treated in the strong damping limit, and have…
A Statistical Description of Parametric Instabilities with an Incoherent Pump
D. Pesme, R. L. Berger, E. A. Williams +2
The effect on parametric instability growth of pump wave incoherence is treated by deriving a set of equations governing the space-time evolution of the ensemble-average coupled-mo…
Kinetic-Ion Simulations Addressing Whether Ion Trapping Inflates Stimulated Brillouin Backscattering Reflectivities
B. I. Cohen, E. A. Williams, H. X. Vu
An investigation of the possible inflation of stimulated Brillouin backscattering (SBS) due to ion kinetic effects is presented using electromagnetic particle simulations and integ…
