Electron Surfing Acceleration in Magnetic Reconnection
We discuss that energetic electrons are generated near the X-type magnetic reconnection region due to a surfing acceleration mechanism. In a thin plasma sheet, the polarization electric fields pointing towards the neutral sheet are induced around the boundary between the lobe and plasma sheet in association with the Hall electric current. By using a particle-in-cell simulation, we demonstrate t...
متن کاملAbsence of Electron Surfing Acceleration in a Two-Dimensional Simulation
Electron acceleration in high Mach number perpendicular shocks is investigated through two-dimensional electrostatic particle-in-cell (PIC) simulation. We simulate the shock foot region by modeling particles that consist of three components such as incident protons and electrons and reflected protons in the initial state which satisfies the Buneman instability condition. In contrast to previous...
متن کاملDirect electron acceleration by stochastic laser fields in the presence of self-generated magnetic fields.
A simple direct acceleration model is proposed, taking into account the stochastic phase disturbance of the coherent driving laser fields. A relativistic single particle simulation shows that plasma electrons are efficiently accelerated far above the ponderomotive energy. The energy and momentum distributions of the accelerated electrons are derived to examine the effects of the self-generated ...
متن کاملJet Acceleration by Tangled Magnetic Fields
We explore the possibility that extragalactic radio jets might be accelerated by highly disorganized magnetic fields that are strong enough to dominate the dynamics until the terminal Lorentz factor is reached. Following the twin-exhaust model by Blandford & Rees (1974), the collimation under this scenario is provided by the stratified thermal pressure from an external medium. The acceleration ...
متن کاملReduction of photon contamination in electron therapy of cancer with magnetic fields
Introduction: Photon contamination is a restriction on treatment with electron that increase dose to healthy tissue below the tumor. The aim of this study is to reduce the photon contamination using a magnet system. Materials and Methods: A mini-applicator equipped with two neodymium boron permanent magnets was designed which make it possible to adjust the d...
