Two-dimensional PIC simulation of collective Thomson scattering in a beam-plasma system
Yuma Sato, Shuichi Matsukiyo
Collective Thomson scattering (CTS) in a beam-plasma system is reproduced by using 2D PIC simulations and the characteristics of the scattered wave spectrum are examined. By formul…
Loading non-Maxwellian Velocity Distributions in Particle Simulations
Seiji Zenitani, Shunsuke Usami, Shuichi Matsukiyo
Numerical procedures for generating non-Maxwellian velocity distributions in particle simulations are presented. First, Monte Carlo methods for an distribution that general…
Relativistic two-wave resonant acceleration of electrons at large-amplitude standing whistler waves during laser-plasma interaction
Takayoshi Sano, Shogo Isayama, Kenta Takahashi +1
The interaction between a thin foil target and a circularly polarized laser light injected along an external magnetic field is investigated numerically by particle-in-cell simulati…
Collective Thomson scattering in non-equilibrium laser produced two-stream plasmas
K. Sakai, S. Isayama, N. Bolouki +12
We investigate collective Thomson scattering (CTS) in two-stream non-equilibrium plasmas analytically, numerically and experimentally. In laboratory astrophysics, CTS is a unique t…
High-power laser experiment forming a supercritical collisionless shock in a magnetized uniform plasma at rest
Ryo Yamazaki, S. Matsukiyo, T. Morita +51
We present a new experimental method to generate quasi-perpendicular supercritical magnetized collisionless shocks. In our experiment, ambient nitrogen (N) plasma is at rest and we…
Mach number and plasma beta dependence of the ion temperature perpendicular to the external magnetic field in the transition region of perpendicular collisionless shocks
Ryo Yamazaki, Ayato Shinoda, Takayuki Umeda +1
Ion temperature anisotropy is a common feature for (quasi-)perpendicular collisionless shocks. By using two-dimensional full particle simulations, it is shown, that the ion tempera…
