Ladder Climbing and Autoresonant Acceleration of Plasma Waves.
When the background density in a bounded plasma is modulated in time, discrete modes become coupled. Interestingly, for appropriately chosen modulations, the average plasmon energy might be made to grow in a ladderlike manner, achieving upconversion or downconversion of the plasmon energy. This reversible process is identified as a classical analog of the effect known as quantum ladder climbing...
متن کاملKinetic Simulations of the Interruption of Large-Amplitude Shear-Alfvén Waves in a High-β Plasma.
Using two-dimensional hybrid-kinetic simulations, we explore the nonlinear "interruption" of standing and traveling shear-Alfvén waves in collisionless plasmas. Interruption involves a self-generated pressure anisotropy removing the restoring force of a linearly polarized Alfvénic perturbation, and occurs for wave amplitudes δB_{⊥}/B_{0}≳β^{-1/2} (where β is the ratio of thermal to magnetic pre...
متن کاملClimbing the Technology Ladder Too Fast ?
This paper provides a star comparison of manufacturing productivity levels in China, India, Indonesia, South Korea and Taiwan with the US as the reference country for the period 1963-1993. South Korea and Taiwan showed prolonged catch up in labour productivity with the US, whereas the other countries had long periods of relative stagnation. This is reflected in relative performance of seven det...
متن کاملKinetic plasma simulations for three dielectric etchers
Particle-in-cell Monte Carlo collision (PIC/MCC) modeling of dual frequency asymmetric capacitively coupled plasma (CCP) sources has been carried out. In particular, the following configurations have been modeled: 27/2 MHz system with an electrode separation of 2 cm, 60/2 MHz system with a gap of 4.5 cm, and 162/13.56 MHz system with a gap of 3.2 cm. It is found that both the ion flux to the el...
متن کاملShielding simulations for safe use of curtain electron accelerator by MCNP4C
In an electron curtain accelerator, when the electron beam passes through the titanium exit window of the accelerator chamber, X-ray photons are produced as a negative by-product of retarding accelerated electrons. Controlling the produced X-ray photons to avoid their detrimental effects or in fact, proper shielding of the accelerator is an important issue that has to be considered in the use o...
