Cocoon formation by a mildly relativistic pair jet in unmagnetized collisionless electron-proton plasma

M E Dieckmann, G Sarri, D Folini +2

By modelling the expansion of a cloud of electrons and positrons with the temperature 400 keV that propagates at the mean speed 0.9c ( speed of light) through an initially unma…

Laser-driven high-quality positron sources as possible injectors for plasma-based accelerators

Aaron Alejo, Roman Walczak, Gianluca Sarri

The intrinsic constraints in the amplitude of the accelerating fields sustainable by radio-frequency accelerators demand for the pursuit of alternative and more compact acceleratio…

Expansion of a mildly relativistic hot pair cloud into an electron-proton plasma

ME Dieckmann, A Alejo, G Sarri

The expansion of a charge-neutral cloud of electrons and positrons with the temperature 1 MeV into an unmagnetized ambient plasma is examined with a 2D particle-in-cell (PIC) simul…

One-dimensional thermal pressure-driven expansion of a pair cloud into an electron-proton plasma

M. E. Dieckmann, A. Alejo, G. Sarri +2

Recently a filamentation instability was observed when a laser-generated pair cloud interacted with an ambient plasma. The magnetic field it drove was strong enough to magnetize an…

Expansion of a radially symmetric blast shell into a uniformly magnetized plasma

M E Dieckmann, Q Moreno, D Doria +7

The expansion of a thermal pressure-driven radial blast shell into a dilute ambient plasma is examined with two-dimensional PIC simulations. The purpose is to determine if laminar…

General features of experiments on the dynamics of laser-driven electron-positron beams

J. R. Warwick, A. Alejo, T. Dzelzainis +14

The experimental study of the dynamics of neutral electron-positron beams is an emerging area of research, enabled by the recent results on the generation of this exotic state of m…
