Self-organization of photoionized plasmas via kinetic instabilities
Chaojie Zhang, Chen-Kang Huang, Chan Joshi
Self-organization in an unmagnetized collisionless plasma (in this paper) refers to formation of transient coherent structures such as collective oscillations (electrostatic waves)…
Influence of realistic parameters on state-of-the-art LWFA experiments
J. Vieira, S. F. Martins, F. Fiúza +7
We examine the influence of non-ideal plasma-density and non-Gaussian transverse laser-intensity profiles in the laser wakefield accelerator analytically and numerically. We find t…
Beam loading in the nonlinear regime of plasma-based acceleration
M. Tzoufras, W. Lu, F. S. Tsung +6
A theory that describes how to load negative charge into a nonlinear, three-dimensional plasma wakefield is presented. In this regime, a laser or an electron beam blows out the pla…
One-to-one full scale simulations of laser wakefield acceleration using QuickPIC
J. Vieira, F. Fiuza, R. A. Fonseca +9
We use the quasi-static particle-in-cell code QuickPIC to perform full-scale, one-to-one LWFA numerical experiments, with parameters that closely follow current experimental condit…
Three-dimensional structure of the laser wakefield accelerator in the blowout regime
J. F. Vieira, S. F. Martins, F. Fiuza +9
Three-dimensional Particle-in-Cell (PIC) simulations with the code QuickPIC are used to illustrate the typical accelerating structures associated with the interaction of an intense…
