Observation of collective modes of ultracold plasmas.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Applying a radio-frequency electric field to an expanding ultracold neutral plasma leads to the observation of as many as six peaks in the emission of electrons from the plasma. These are identified as collective modes of the plasma and are in qualitative agreement with a model of Tonks-Dattner resonances, electron sound waves propagating in a finite-sized, inhomogeneous plasma. Such modes may provide an accurate method to determine the time-dependent electron temperature.

In this paper, by using a quantum hydrodynamic plasma model which incorporates the important quantum statistical pressure and electron diffraction force, we present the corrected plasmon dispersion relation for graphene which includes a k quantum term arising from the collective electron density wave interference effects (which is integer and constant and k is wave vector). The longitudinal ...

متن کاملSpin Quantum Plasmas — New Aspects of Collective Dynamics
Quantum plasmas is a rapidly expanding field of research, with applications ranging from nanoelectronics, nanoscale devices and ultracold plasmas, to in-ertial confinement fusion and astrophysics. Here we give a short systematic overview of quantum plasmas. In particular, we analyze the collective effects due to spin using fluid models. The introduction of an intrinsic magnetization due to the ...
