Bayesian Optimization of Molybdenum-99 Production by Laser Wakefield Acceleration Using Coupled PIC and Monte Carlo Simulations

Bruno Silveira Nunes, Nilson Dias Vieira Junior, Mirko Salomón Alva Sánchez +2

This work applies Bayesian optimization to a loop composed of PIC simulations of laser electron acceleration and Monte Carlo (MC) simulations of bremsstrahlung-induced nuclear reac…

Electron Acceleration in Carbon Nanotubes

Cristian Bontoiu, Alexandre Bonatto, Öznur Apsimon +16

Wakefield wavelengths associated with solid-state plasmas greatly limit the accelerating length. An alternative approach employs 2D carbon-based nanomaterials, like graphene or car…

100s TeV/m-Level Particle Accelerators Driven by High-density Electron Beams in Micro Structured Carbon Nanotube Forest Channel

Bifeng Lei, Hao Zhang, Cristian Bontoiu +5

Solid-state materials, such as carbon nanotubes (CNTs), have the potential to support ultra-high accelerating fields in the TV/m range for charged particle acceleration. In this st…

Bayesian optimization of laser wakefield acceleration in the self-modulated regime (SM-LWFA) aiming to produce molybdenum-99 via photonuclear reactions

B. S. Nunes, S. P. Santos, R. P. Nunes +7

While laser wakefield acceleration (LWFA) in the bubble regime demands ultra-short, high-peak-power laser pulses, operation in the self-modulated regime (SM-LWFA) works with more r…

Plasmonic excitations in double-walled carbon nanotubes

Pablo Martín-Luna, Alexandre Bonatto, Cristian Bontoiu +2

The interactions of charged particles moving paraxially in multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) may excite electromagnetic modes. This wake effect has recently been proposed as a…
