General relativistic hydrodynamic flows around a static compact object in final stages of accretion flow

Dynamics of stationary axisymmetric configuration of the viscous accreting fluids surrounding a non-rotating compact object in final stages of accretion flow is presented here. For the special case of thin disk approximation, the relativistic fluid equations ignoring self-gravity of the disk are derived in Schwarzschild geometry. For two different state equations, two sets of self-consistent an...

Design of a Compact ECR Ion Source with Ku Band

The electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) ion sources are increasingly popular for producing highly charged ions. With worldwide proposals to build the Isotope Seperator OnLine (ISOL) facility being at hand, it becomes important to design a high efficiency ion source as a charge breeder for the secondary beam. A novel type of ECR ion source based on a flat magnetic field configuration has been pro...

Laser Beat-wave Microbunching of Relativistic Electron Beam in the Thz Range

Laser-driven plasma accelerators have recently demonstrated a ~1GeV energy gain of self-trapped electrons in a several-centimeter-long plasma channel. Potential staging of such devices will require the external injection of an electron beam prebunched on the scale of 1-10 THz into a plasma accelerating structure or plasma LINAC. Seeded FEL/IFEL techniques can be used for modulation of the elect...
