Shock creation and particle acceleration driven by plasma expansion into a rarefied medium
G. Sarri, I. Kourakis, M. E. Dieckmann +1
The expansion of a dense plasma through a more rarefied ionised medium is a phenomenon of interest in various physics environments ranging from astrophysics to high energy density…

PIC Simulations of the Temperature Anisotropy-Driven Weibel Instability: Analyzing the perpendicular mode
A Stockem, M E Dieckmann, R Schlickeiser
An instability driven by the thermal anisotropy of a single electron species is investigated in a 2D particle-in-cell (PIC) simulation. This instability is the one considered by We…

How large can the electron to proton mass ratio be in Particle-In-Cell simulations of unstable systems?
A. Bret, M. E. Dieckmann
Particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations are widely used as a tool to investigate instabilities that develop between a collisionless plasma and beams of charged particles. However, even…
