Anomalous electron mobility in a coaxial Hall discharge plasma.
A comprehensive analysis of measurements supporting the presence of anomalous cross-field electron mobility in Hall plasma accelerators is presented. Nonintrusive laser-induced fluorescence measurements of neutral xenon and ionized xenon velocities, and various electrostatic probe diagnostic measurements are used to locally determine the effective electron Hall parameter inside the accelerator ...
متن کاملThe Plasma Beat Wave Accelerator - I Experiments
In the Plasma Beat Wave Accelerator, acceleration is achieved by a longitudinal electrostatic field produced as a result of charge separation generated by a plasma wave traveling close to the speed of light. The plasma wave in turn is produced by two colinear laser pulses whose amplitude is modulated so that the beat frequency matches the plasma frequency. Optical mixing and Raman forward scatt...
متن کاملFluctuation-induced transport in the Hall plasma accelerator
This paper considers small-amplitude fluctuations in the Hall-effect thruster. To predict which fluctuations could be important to transport, the growth of a disturbance is determined as a function of real frequency and propagation angle. In the simple case, strong growth is predicted for disturbances that are azimuthal. In the general case, strong growth is predicted for various propagation an...
متن کاملA contoured gap coaxial plasma gun with injected plasma armature.
A new coaxial plasma gun is described. The long term objective is to accelerate 100-200 microg of plasma with density above 10(17) cm(-3) to greater than 200 km/s with a Mach number above 10. Such high velocity dense plasma jets have a number of potential fusion applications, including plasma refueling, magnetized target fusion, injection of angular momentum into centrifugally confined mirrors,...
متن کاملAnalysis of Capillary Guided Laser Plasma Accelerator Experiments at LBNL
Laser wakefield acceleration experiments were carried out by using a hydrogen-filled capillary discharge waveguide. For a 15 mm long, 200 μm diameter capillary, quasi-monoenergetic e-beams up to 300 MeV were observed. By de-tuning discharge delay from optimum guiding performance, self-trapping was found to be stabilized. For a 33 mm long, 300 μm capillary, a parameter regime with high energy el...
