Efficient generation of new orbital angular momentum beams by backward and forward stimulated Raman scattering
Q. S. Feng, R. Aboushelbaya, M. W. Mayr +9
Laser beams carrying orbital angular momentum (OAM) provide an additional degree of freedom and have found wide applications ranging from optical communications and optical manipul…
Methods for Extremely Sparse-Angle Proton Tomography
Ben T. Spiers, Ramy Aboushelbaya, Qingsong Feng +6
Proton radiography is a widely-fielded diagnostic used to measure magnetic structures in plasma. The deflection of protons with multi-MeV kinetic energy by the magnetic fields is u…
Collisionless shock acceleration in the corona of an inertial confinement fusion pellet with possible application to ion fast ignition
E. Boella, R. Bingham, R. A. Cairns +6
Two-dimensional Particle-In-Cell simulations are used to explore collisionless shock acceleration in the corona plasma surrounding the compressed core of an inertial confinement fu…
Nonlinear wakefields and electron injection in cluster plasma
Marko Mayr, Ben Spiers, Ramy Aboushelbaya +6
Laser and beam driven wakefields promise orders of magnitude increases in electric field gradients for particle accelerators for future applications. Key areas to explore include t…
Kinetic simulations of fusion ignition with hot-spot ablator mix
James D. Sadler, Yingchao Lu, Benjamin Spiers +9
Inertial confinement fusion fuel suffers increased X-ray radiation losses when carbon from the capsule ablator mixes into the hot-spot. Here we present one and two-dimensional ion…
Suprathermal Electrons from the Anti-Stokes Langmuir Decay Instability Cascade
Q. S. Feng, R. Aboushelbaya, M. W. Mayr +10
The study of parametric instabilities has played a crucial role in understanding energy transfer to plasma and, with that, the development of key applications such as inertial conf…
