A plasma photocathode for spin-polarized electron beams via state-selected hydrogen halide photofragments
Lars Reichwein, Thomas C. Wilson, Dimitris Sofikitis +6
Spin-polarized electron beams are essential tools for probing fundamental symmetries and for the search beyond the Standard Model. While plasma-based accelerators are a promising p…
Spin dynamics and ortho-para conversion in HO during the phase transition from gas to solid in external magnetic fields
Chrysovalantis S. Kannis, Ralf Engels, Nicolas Faatz +2
The spin dynamics of water ice in the presence of external magnetic fields are investigated. The employed model is based on the approach introduced by Buntkowsky et al. [Z. Phys. C…
Laguerre-Gaussian pulses for spin-polarized ion beam acceleration
Lars Reichwein, Tong-Pu Yu, Alexander Pukhov +1
Polarized particle sources have a plethora of applications, ranging from deep-inelastic scattering to nuclear fusion. One crucial challenge in laser-plasma interaction is maintaini…
Interaction of Laguerre-Gaussian laser pulses with borane targets of different hydrogen-boron ratio
Lars Reichwein, Alexander Pukhov, Markus Büscher
We study the interaction of high-intensity Laguerre Gaussian laser pulses with hydrogen-boron compounds targets using 3D particle-in-cell simulations. The ratio of hydrogen to boro…
