Stopping, straggling, and blooming of directed energetic electrons in hydrogenic and arbitrary-Z plasmas.

چکیده
From fundamental principles, the interaction of directed energetic electrons with hydrogenic and arbitrary-Z plasmas is analytically modeled. The effects of stopping, straggling, and beam blooming, a consequence of scattering and energy loss, are rigorously treated from a unified approach. Enhanced energy deposition occurs in the latter portion of the penetration and is inextricably linked to straggling and blooming. These effects, which have a strong Z dependence, will be important in evaluating the requirements of fast ignition and tolerable levels of electron preheat.

Energy deposition of MeV electrons in compressed targets of fast-ignition inertial confinement fusion
Energy deposition of MeV electrons in dense plasmas, critical for fast ignition in inertial confinement fusion (ICF), is modeled analytically. It is shown that classical stopping and scattering dominate electron transport and energy deposition when the electrons reach the dense plasmas in the cores of compressed targets, while “anomalous” stopping associated with self-generated fields and micro...
متن کاملStopping of directed energetic electrons in high-temperature hydrogenic plasmas.
From fundamental principles, the interaction of directed energetic electrons with a high-temperature hydrogenic plasma is analytically modeled. The randomizing effect of scattering off both plasma ions and electrons is treated from a unified point of view. For electron energies less than 3 MeV , electron scattering is equally important. The net effect of multiple scattering is to reduce the pen...

متن کاملLarge amplitude dust ion acoustic solitons: considering dust polarity and nonextensive electrons
The characteristics of arbitrary amplitude dust ion acoustic solitary waves (DIASWs) are studied in unmagnetized dusty plasmas whose constituents are cold uid ions, nonextensive electrons and stationary negative/positive dust particles. The pseudopotential approach has been used to investigate the structure of localized waves. It is found that, solitary waves exist in a definite interval for th...
