Comment on: "Interacting quantum and classical waves: Resonant and non-resonant energy transfer to electrons immersed in an intense electromagnetic wave'' [Phys. Plasmas 29, 022107 (2022)]
A. Macchi
A comment on the paper by S. M. Mahajan and F. A. Asenjo "Interacting quantum and classical waves: Resonant and non-resonant energy transfer to electrons immersed in an intense ele…
Surface Plasmon-Driven Electron and Proton Acceleration without Grating Coupling
J. Sarma, A. McIlvenny, N. Das +2
Surface plasmon (SP) excitation in intense laser interaction with solid target can be exploited for enhancing secondary emissions, in particular efficient acceleration of high char…
Ultrashort high energy electron bunches from tunable surface plasma waves driven with laser wavefront rotation
S. Marini, P. S. Kleij, F. Pisani +5
We propose to use ultra-high intensity laser pulses with wavefront rotation (WFR) to produce short, ultra-intense surface plasma waves (SPW) on grating targets for electron acceler…
Quantum effects on radiation friction driven magnetic field generation
T. V. Liseykina, A. Macchi, S. V. Popruzhenko
Radiation losses in the interaction of superintense circularly polarized laser pulses with high-density plasmas can lead to the generation of strong quasistatic magnetic fields via…
Plasma Waves in a Different Frame: a Tutorial for Plasma-based Electron Accelerators
A. Macchi
Nonlinear, relativistic longitudinal waves with sub-luminal phase velocity are the basis of plasma-based electron accelerators. For such application, key properties of the wa…
Momentum Absorption and Magnetic Field Generation by Obliquely Incident Light
Andrea Macchi, Anna Grassi, François Amiranoff +1
The partial reflection of an electromagnetic (EM) wave from a medium leads to absorption of momentum in the direction perpendicular to the surface (the standard radiation pressure)…
