Electron heating in a current-driven turbulence as a result of nonlinear interaction of electron- and ion-acoustic waves
Jian Chen, Alexander V. Khrabrov, Igor D. Kaganovich +1
We study electron heating in collisionless current-driven turbulence due to the nonlinear interactions between electron- and ion-acoustic waves. PIC simulation results show that du…
Investigating the effects of electron bounce-cyclotron resonance on plasma dynamics in capacitive discharges operated in the presence of a weak transverse magnetic field
Sarveshwar Sharma, Sanket Patil, Sudip Sengupta +3
Recently, S Patil et al. have reported the existence of an enhanced operating regime when a low-pressure (5 mTorr) capacitively coupled discharge (CCP) is driven by a very high rad…
Electron Modulational Instability in the Strong Turbulent Regime for an Electron Beam Propagating in Background Plasma
Haomin Sun, Jian Chen, Igor D. Kaganovich +2
We study collective processes for an electron beam propagating through a background plasma using simulations and analytical theory. A new regime where the instability of a Langmuir…
Physical Regimes of Electrostatic Wave-Wave nonlinear interactions generated by an Electron Beam Propagating in a Background Plasma
Haomin Sun, Jian Chen, Igor D. Kaganovich +2
Electron-beam plasma interaction has long been a topic of great interest. Despite the success of Quasi-Linear (QL) theory and Weak Turbulence (WT) theory, their validities are limi…
Excitation of electrostatic solitary waves and surface waves in ion beam neutralization process
Nakul Nuwal, Igor D. Kaganovich, Deborah A. Levin
Unusually long electrostatic solitary waves (ESWs) are discovered in 2D and 3D Particle-in-Cell studies of the process of ion beam neutralization by electron emission from filament…
Kinetic modeling of three-dimensional electrostatic-solitary and surface waves in beam neutralization
Nakul Nuwal, Deborah A. Levin, Igor D. Kaganovich
This work studies the fundamental plasma processes involved in the neutralization of an ion beam's space-charge by electrons emitted by a filament using Particle-in-Cell simulation…
