Magnetogenesis in a collisionless plasma: from Weibel instability to turbulent dynamo
Muni Zhou, Vladimir Zhdankin, Matthew W. Kunz +2
We report on a first-principles numerical and theoretical study of plasma dynamo in a fully kinetic framework. By applying an external mechanical force to an initially unmagnetized…
A quantum algorithm for the linear Vlasov equation with collisions
Abtin Ameri, Paola Cappellaro, Hari Krovi +2
The Vlasov equation is a nonlinear partial differential equation that provides a first-principles description of the dynamics of plasmas. Its linear limit is routinely used in plas…
Observation of electromagnetic filamentary structures produced by the Weibel instability in laser-driven plasmas
G. D. Sutcliffe, P. J. Adrian, J. A. Pearcy +6
We present experimental observations of electron-scale structures in an expanding high-energy-density (HED) plasma generated with a modest intensity W/cm$^2…
Intermittency and electron heating in kinetic-Alfvén-wave turbulence
Muni Zhou, Zhuo Liu, Nuno F. Loureiro
We report analytical and numerical investigations of sub-ion-scale turbulence in low-beta plasmas, focusing on the spectral properties of the fluctuations and electron heating. In…
Experimental Evidence of Plasmoids in High- Magnetic Reconnection
J. A. Pearcy, M. J. Rosenberg, T. M. Johnson +6
Magnetic reconnection is a ubiquitous and fundamental process in plasmas by which magnetic fields change their topology and release magnetic energy. Despite decades of research, th…
A quantum-inspired method for solving the Vlasov-Poisson equations
Erika Ye, Nuno F. G. Loureiro
Kinetic simulations of collisionless (or weakly collisional) plasmas using the Vlasov equation are often infeasible due to high resolution requirements and the exponential scaling…
