Relativistically transparent magnetic filaments: scaling laws, initial results and prospects for strong-field QED studies
H. G. Rinderknecht, T. Wang, A. Laso Garcia +10
Relativistic transparency enables volumetric laser interaction with overdense plasmas and direct laser acceleration of electrons to relativistic velocities. The dense electron curr…
Generation of ultra-relativistic monoenergetic electron bunches via a synergistic interaction of longitudinal electric and magnetic fields of a twisted laser
Yin Shi, David Blackman, Dan Stutman +1
We use 3D simulations to demonstrate that high-quality ultra-relativistic electron bunches can be generated upon reflection of a twisted laser beam off a plasma mirror. The unique…
Effects of simulation dimensionality on laser-driven electron acceleration and photon emission in hollow micro-channel targets
Tao Wang, David Blackman, Katherine Chin +1
Using two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) kinetic simulations, we examine the impact of simulation dimensionality on the laser-driven electron acceleration and the emis…
Particle integrator for particle-in-cell simulations of ultra-high intensity laser-plasma interactions
Kavin Tangtartharakul, Guangye Chen, Alexey Arefiev
Particle-in-cell codes are the most widely used simulation tools for kinetic studies of ultra-intense laser-plasma interactions. Using the motion of a single electron in a plane el…
