Emergence of MHD structures in a collisionless PIC simulation plasma
M E Dieckmann, D Folini, R Walder +5
The expansion of a dense plasma into a dilute plasma across an initially uniform perpendicular magnetic field is followed with a one-dimensional particle-in-cell (PIC) simulation o…
Expansion of a radial plasma blast shell into an ambient plasma
M E Dieckmann, D Doria, H Ahmed +6
The expansion of a radial blast shell into an ambient plasma is modeled with a particle-in-cell (PIC) simulation. The unmagnetized plasma consists of electrons and protons. The for…
Acceleration of collimated 45 MeV protons by collisionless shocks driven in low-density, large-scale gradient plasmas by a 10^20 W/cm^2, 1 micron wavelength laser
P. Antici, E. Boella, S. N. Chen +17
A new type of proton acceleration stemming from large-scale gradients, low-density targets, irradiated by an intense near-infrared laser is observed. The produced protons are chara…
Experimental observation of a current-driven instability in a neutral electron-positron beam
J. Warwick, T. Dzelzainis, M. E. Dieckmann +16
We report on the first experimental observation of a current-driven instability developing in a quasi-neutral matter-antimatter beam. Strong magnetic fields ( 1 T) are measur…
