Measurement of ion acceleration and diffusion in a laser-driven magnetized plasma
J. T. Y. Chu, J. W. D. Halliday, C. Heaton +25
Here we present results from an experiment performed at the GSI Helmholtz Centre for Heavy Ion Research. A mono-energetic beam of chromium ions with initial energies of …
Proposal to use laser-accelerated electrons to probe the axion-electron coupling
Georgios Vacalis, Atsushi Higuchi, Robert Bingham +1
The axion is a hypothetical particle associated with a possible solution to the strong CP problem and is a leading candidate for dark matter. In this paper we investigate the emiss…
Larmor radiation as a witness to the Unruh effect
Atsushi Higuchi, George E. A. Matsas, Daniel A. T. Vanzella +5
We discuss the emission of radiation from general sources in quantum scalar, electromagnetic and gravitational fields using the Rindler coordinate frame, which is suitable for a un…
Emission of pairs of Minkowski photons through the lens of the Unruh effect
Juan V. O. Pêgas, Robert Bingham, Gianluca Gregori +1
We discuss the emission of pairs of photons by charges with generic worldlines in the Minkowski vacuum from the viewpoint of inertial observers and interpret them from the perspect…
An Online Data Analysis Framework for Small-Scale Physics Experiments
Hayden Ramm, Pascal Simon, Paraskevi Alexaki +11
A robust and flexible architecture capable of providing real-time analysis on diagnostic data is of crucial importance to physics experiments. In this paper, we present such an onl…
Suppression of pair beam instabilities in a laboratory analogue of blazar pair cascades
Charles D. Arrowsmith, Francesco Miniati, Pablo J. Bilbao +28
The generation of dense electron-positron pair beams in the laboratory can enable direct tests of theoretical models of -ray bursts and active galactic nuclei. We have successf…
