Laser-Driven, Ion-Scale Magnetospheres in Laboratory Plasmas. II. Particle-in-cell Simulations
Filipe D. Cruz, Derek B. Schaeffer, Fábio Cruz +1
Ion-scale magnetospheres have been observed around comets, weakly-magnetized asteroids, and localized regions on the Moon, and provide a unique environment to study kinetic-scale p…
Lorentz boosted frame simulation of Laser wakefield acceleration in quasi-3D geometry
Peicheng Yu, Xinlu Xu, Asher Davidson +11
When modeling laser wakefield acceleration (LWFA) using the particle-in-cell (PIC) algorithm in a Lorentz boosted frame, the plasma is drifting relativistically at towards…
Laser-plasma interactions for fast ignition
A. J. Kemp, F. Fiuza, A. Debayle +5
In the electron-driven fast-ignition approach to inertial confinement fusion, petawatt laser pulses are required to generate MeV electrons that deposit several tens of kilojoules i…
Expansion of nanoplasmas and laser-driven nuclear fusion in single exploding clusters
F. Peano, J. L. Martins, R. A. Fonseca +6
The expansion of laser-irradiated clusters or nanodroplets depends strongly on the amount of energy delivered to the electrons and can be controlled by using appropriately shaped l…
