Oscillations of subcritical fast magnetosonic shock boundaries caused by shock reformation
M E Dieckmann, A Bret, D Folini +1
The evolution of a deformed subcritical fast magnetosonic shock front is compared between two two-dimensional PIC simulations with different orientations of the magnetic field rela…
Three-dimensional structure and stability of discontinuities between unmagnetized pair plasma and magnetized electron-proton plasma
M E Dieckmann, D Folini, M Falk +3
We study with a 3D PIC simulation discontinuities between an electron-positron pair plasma and magnetized electrons and protons. A pair plasma is injected at one simulation boundar…
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…
Expansion of a radial plasma blast shell into an ambient plasma
M E Dieckmann, D Doria, H Ahmed +6
The expansion of a radial blast shell into an ambient plasma is modeled with a particle-in-cell (PIC) simulation. The unmagnetized plasma consists of electrons and protons. The for…
The interplay of the collisionless nonlinear thin-shell instability with the ion acoustic instability
Mark Eric Dieckmann, Doris Folini, Rolf Walder
The nonlinear thin-shell instability (NTSI) may explain some of the turbulent hydrodynamic structures that are observed close to the collision boundary of energetic astrophysical o…
