Relativistic Collisionless Shocks in Unmagnetized Electron-positron Plasmas
It is shown that collisionless shock waves can be driven in unmagnetized electron-positron plasmas by performing a two-dimensional particle-in-cell simulation. At the shock transition region, strong magnetic fields are generated by a Weibel-like instability. The generated magnetic fields are strong enough to deflect the incoming particles from upstream of the shock at a large angle and provide ...
متن کاملIsolated unstable Weibel modes in unmagnetized plasmas with tunable asymmetry
In this paper, an initially unmagnetized pair plasma with asymmetric velocity distributions is investigated where any unstable Weibel mode must be isolated, with discrete values for the growth rates and the unstable wavenumbers. For both a non-relativistic distribution with thermal spread and a high-relativistic two-stream distribution it is shown that isolated modes are excited and that, as th...
متن کاملMagnetic Field Evolution in Relativistic Unmagnetized Collisionless Shocks
We study relativistic unmagnetized collisionless shocks using unprecedentedly large particle-in-cell simulations of two-dimensional pair plasma. High energy particles accelerated by the shock are found to drive magnetic field evolution on a timescale & 10 plasma times. Progressively stronger magnetic fields are generated on larger scales in a growing region around the shock. Shock-generated mag...
متن کاملWeak collisionless shocks in laser-plasmas
We obtain a theory describing laminar shock-like structures in a collisionless plasma and examine the parameter limits, in terms of the ion sound Mach number and the electron/ion temperature ratio, within which these structures exist. The essential feature is the inclusion of nite ion temperature with the result that some ions are reected from a potential ramp. This destroys the symmetry betw...
متن کاملCollisionless magnetic reconnection in space plasmas
*Correspondence: Rudolf A. Treumann, International Space Science Institute Bern, Hallerstrasse 6, CH-3012 Bern, Switzerland e-mail: [email protected] Magnetic reconnection, the merging of oppositely directed magnetic fields that leads to field reconfiguration, plasma heating, jetting and acceleration, is one of the most celebrated processes in collisionless plasmas. It requires the violation...
