Generalized multi-dimensional conservation laws for stimulated Raman and Brillouin scattering in a density gradient
Vijay Patel, Sarah Chase, Frank S. Tsung +3
Generalized local and multi-dimensional conservation laws of action, energy, momentum, and angular momentum are derived for stimulated Raman (SRS) and Brillouin backscattering (SBS…
Efficient generation and amplification of intense vortex and vector laser pulses via strongly coupled stimulated Brillouin scattering in plasmas
Yipeng Wu, Chaojie Zhang, Zan Nie +7
The past decade has seen tremendous progress in the production and utilization of vortex and vector laser pulses. Although both are considered as structured light beams, the vortex…
Accurate simulation of direct laser acceleration in a laser wakefield accelerator
Kyle G. Miller, John P. Palastro, Jessica L. Shaw +4
In a laser wakefield accelerator (LWFA), an intense laser pulse excites a plasma wave that traps and accelerates electrons to relativistic energies. When the pulse overlaps the acc…
Ultra-compact attosecond X-ray free-electron lasers utilizing unique beams from plasma-based acceleration and an optical undulator
Xinlu Xu, Jiaxin Liu, Thamine Dalichaouch +7
Accelerator-based X-ray free-electron lasers (XFELs) are the latest addition to the revolutionary tools of discovery for the 21st century. The two major components of an XFEL are a…
Kinetic theory of particle-in-cell simulation plasma and the ensemble averaging technique
Michael Touati, Romain Codur, Frank Tsung +3
We derive the kinetic theory of fluctuations in physically and numerically stable particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations of electrostatic plasmas. The starting point is the single-time…
Highly spin-polarized multi-GeV electron beams generated by single-species plasma photocathodes
Zan Nie, Fei Li, Felipe Morales +11
High-gradient and high-efficiency acceleration in plasma-based accelerators has been demonstrated, showing its potential as the building block for a future collider operating at th…
