Statistical kinetic treatment of relativistic binary collisions
F. Peano, M. Marti, L. O. Silva +1
In particle-based algorithms, the effect of binary collisions is commonly described in a statistical way, using Monte Carlo techniques. It is shown that, in the relativistic regime…
Expansion of nanoplasmas and laser-driven nuclear fusion in single exploding clusters
F. Peano, J. L. Martins, R. A. Fonseca +6
The expansion of laser-irradiated clusters or nanodroplets depends strongly on the amount of energy delivered to the electrons and can be controlled by using appropriately shaped l…
Prospects for all-optical ultrafast muon acceleration
F. Peano, J. Vieira, R. Mulas +3
A scheme for fast, compact, and controllable acceleration of heavy particles in vacuum has been recently proposed [F. Peano et al., New J. Phys. 10 033028 (2008)], wherein two coun…
Direct Acceleration of Ions With Variable-frequency Lasers
F. Peano, J. Vieira, R. A. Fonseca +3
A method is proposed for producing monoergetic, high-quality ion beams in vacuum, via direct acceleration by the electromagnetic field of two counterpropagating, variable-frequency…
All-optical trapping and acceleration of heavy particles
F. Peano, J. Vieira, L. O. Silva +2
A scheme for fast, compact, and controllable acceleration of heavy particles in vacuum is proposed, in which two counterpropagating lasers with variable frequencies drive a beat-wa…
Ergodic model for the expansion of spherical nanoplasmas
F. Peano, G. Coppa, F. Peinetti +2
Recently, the collisionless expansion of spherical nanoplasmas has been analyzed with a new ergodic model, clarifying the transition from hydrodynamic-like to Coulomb-explosion reg…
