Modeling the relativistic runaway electron avalanche and the feedback mechanism with GEANT4
This paper presents the first study that uses the GEometry ANd Tracking 4 (GEANT4) toolkit to do quantitative comparisons with other modeling results related to the production of terrestrial gamma ray flashes and high-energy particle emission from thunderstorms. We will study the relativistic runaway electron avalanche (RREA) and the relativistic feedback process, as well as the production of b...
متن کاملElectron Avalanche Statistics
Since the times of the founders of streamer theory — Raether [1], Loeb [2] and Meek [3] — a special attention has been paid to high populated electron avalanches possessing potential to overgrowing into streamers. One of the basic problem that has not been resolved so far concerns anomalous statistical behavior of big avalanches with electron populations n > 10. The mentioned anomaly consists i...
متن کاملInvestigation of Runaway Electron Eeam in EAST
It is the first time to observe the synchrotron radiation emitted by runaway electrons with a visible CMOS camera in tokamak. Some information about runaway electron has been obtained in the EAST tokamak, which is the first full superconducting tokamak with non-circular cross-section in the world. Both the energy and pitch angle of runaway electrons have been derived from the measurement of syn...
متن کاملSoft collisions in relativistic runaway electron avalanches
This paper reports the first application of the relativistic binary-encounter-Bethe (RBEB) electron impact ionization model for studies of relativistic runaway electron avalanches (RREA) phenomenon at different pressures in air, which is believed to be the root cause of the hard x-rays and terrestrial gamma-ray flashes observed in the Earth’s atmosphere in association with lightning activity. T...
متن کاملRunaway expansion in magnetically confined electron plasmas
Magnetic confinement of neutral plasmas in a tokamak is one of the most promising avenues for generating power via nuclear fusion. Plasma disruption and energy loss, however, continue to cause problems even as larger experimental plants are being built. In particular, cyclical disruption of the plasma’s core electron temperature is a persistent but poorly explained phenomenon. In this paper, I ...
