Giga-Gauss scale quasistatic magnetic field generation with laser
Philipp Korneev, Emmanuel D'Humieres, Vladimir Tikhonchuk
A simple setup for the generation of ultra-intense quasistatic magnetic fields is proposed and analysed. Estimations and numerical Particle-In-Cell calculations show that magnetic…
Ion kinetic effects on the ignition and burn of ICF targets
Benjamin-Edouard Peigney, O. Larroche, Vladimir Tikhonchuk
In this Article, we study the hydrodynamics and burn of the thermonuclear fuel in inertial confinement fusion pellets at the ion kinetic level. The analysis is based on a two-veloc…
Fokker Planck kinetic modeling of suprathermal alpha-particles in a fusion plasma
Benjamin-Edouard Peigney, Olivier Larroche, Vladimir Tikhonchuk
We present an ion kinetic model describing the ignition and burn of the deuterium-tritium fuel of inertial fusion targets. The analysis of the underlying physical model enables us…
Collisionless plasma interpenetration in a strong magnetic field for laboratory astrophysics experiments
Philipp Korneev, Emmanuel d'Humières, Vladimir Tikhonchuk
A theoretical analysis for astrophysics-oriented laser-matter interaction experiments in the presence of a strong ambient magnetic field is presented. It is shown that the plasma c…
