Plasma Wave Acceleration of Electron in Bubble Regime in Presence of a Planar Wiggler
The plasma wave acceleration of electron in the bubble regime is investigated in a new configuration containing a planar wiggler. The space-charge field of the laser-created ion channel can focuse and stabilize the electron trajectory to guide it toward the acceleration region. The high-gradient plasma wave field can resonantly accelerate the trapped electron to higher energies in the presence ...
متن کاملAcceleration mechanism in compact objects
We investigate the kinetic theory of a mixing of rela-tivistic pair plasma in a conventional electron-proton plasma and an intense anisotropic Compton radiation field as those found in the vicinity of a compact object, a neutron star or a black hole. In a two-flow configuration we discriminate two regimes: the first one is realized when the mass energy density of the pair plasma is lower than t...
متن کاملProduction of Fast Neutron with a Plasma Focus Device
Before its demise DIANA Hi-TECH, LLC, demonstrated the use of two 50 kJoule Plasma Focus devices for the copius production of fast neutrons, x-rays and radio-isotopes. Such a device is suitable for fast neutron non invasive interogation of contra-band materials including hidden nuclear materials. It could be particularly useful for a fast and fail safe interogation of large cargo containers, or...
متن کاملNeutron acceleration in uniform electromagnetic fields.
The question as to whether neutron acceleration can occur in uniform electromagnetic fields is examined. Although such an effect has been predicted using the canonical equations of motion some doubt has been raised recently as to whether it is in principle observable for a spin 1/2 particle. To resolve this issue a gedanken experiment is proposed and analyzed using a wave packet construction fo...
متن کاملNeutron production by fast protons from ultraintense laser-plasma interactions
Tens of MeV proton beams have been generated by interactions of the VULCAN petawatt laser with foil targets and used to induce nuclear reactions in zinc and boron samples. The numbers of C, Ga, Ga, Ga, Cu, Zn, Zn, and Zn nuclei have been measured and used to determine the proton energy spectrum. It is known that sp ,nd reactions provide an important method for producing neutron sources and in t...
