An opposite polarity dusty plasma system (containing a few micron size massive opposite polarity dust species and singly charged ion species following Boltzmann law) is considered. The nature of dust-acoustic (DA) wave electrostatic and self-gravitational potentials are correctly found by the numerical analysis of two coupled second-order nonlinear differential equations for electrostatic and self-gravitational potentials associated with the DA waves in such an opposite polarity dusty plasma medium. These coupled nonlinear differential equations are derived from the continuity and momentum equations for positive and negative dust species, and the Boltzmann law for ion species. The basic features of the DA wave self-gravitational potential are compared with that of the DA wave electrostatic potential. The relevance of our results to space and laboratory opposite polarity dusty plasma systems is mentioned.
考虑了一个反极性尘埃等离子体系统(包含几微米大小的大质量反极性尘埃和符合玻尔兹曼定律的单电荷离子)。通过数值分析在极性相反的尘埃等离子体介质中与尘声波相关的两个耦合二阶非线性微分方程,正确地揭示了尘声波的静电势和自引力势的性质。这些耦合的非线性微分方程是由正负尘埃种的连续性方程和动量方程以及离子种的玻尔兹曼定律导出的。比较了DA波自引力势和DA波静电势的基本特征。我们的结果与空间和实验室的相反极性尘埃等离子体系统的相关性被提到。

We study, by numerical and analytical means, the evolution of a uniform one-dimensional collisionless plasma initiated between plane absorbing walls. The ensuing flow is described by rarefaction waves that propagate symmetrically inward from the boundaries, interact, and eventually vanish after crossing through, leading up to the asymptotic phase.
本文采用数值和解析的方法,研究了在平面吸收壁上产生的一维均匀无碰撞等离子体的演化过程。随后的流动用稀疏波来描述,稀疏波从边界对称地向内传播,相互作用,最终在穿过后消失,导致渐近阶段。

Four-dimensional drift-kinetic model for scrape-off layer plasmas 刮擦层等离子体的四维漂移动力学模型

A four-dimensional plasma model able to describe the scrape-off layer region of tokamak devices at arbitrary collisionality is derived in the drift-reduced limit. The basis of the model is provided by a drift-kinetic equation that retains the full non-linear Coulomb collision operator and describes arbitrarily far from equilibrium distribution functions. By expanding the dependence of distribution function over the perpendicular velocity in a Laguerre polynomial basis and integrating over the perpendicular velocity, a set of four-dimensional moment equations for the expansion coefficients of the distribution function is obtained. The Coulomb collision operator, as well as Poisson's equation, are evaluated explicitly in terms of perpendicular velocity moments of the distribution function.

The acceleration of super-heavy ions (SHIs) from plasmas driven by ultrashort (tens of femtoseconds) laser pulses is a challenging topic waiting for breakthrough. The detecting and controlling of the ionization process, and the adoption of the optimal acceleration scheme are crucial for the generation of highly energetic SHIs. Here, we report the experimental results on the generation of deeply ionized super-heavy ions (Au) with unprecedented energy of 1.2 GeV utilizing ultrashort laser pulses (22 fs) at the intensity of 10^22 W/cm2. A novel self-calibrated diagnostic method was developed to acquire the absolute energy spectra and charge state distributions of Au ions abundant at the charge state of 51+ and reaching up to 61+. The measured charge state distributions supported by 2D particle-in-cell simulations serves as an additional tool to inspect the ionization dynamics associated with SHI acceleration, revealing that the laser intensity is the crucial parameter for the acceleration of Au ions over the pulse duration. The use of double-layer targets results in a prolongation of the acceleration time without sacrificing the strength of acceleration field, which is highly favorable for the generation of high-energy super heavy ions.
超短(数十飞秒)激光脉冲驱动等离子体加速超重离子(SHIs)是一个有待突破的具有挑战性的课题。电离过程的检测和控制,以及最优加速方案的采用,是高能SHIs产生的关键。本文报道了利用10^22 W/cm2强度的超短激光脉冲(22 fs)产生能量为1.2 GeV的深度电离超重离子(Au)的实验结果。建立了一种新的自校准诊断方法,用于获取富集在51+和61+电荷态的Au离子的绝对能谱和电荷态分布。二维粒子模拟支持的测量电荷态分布作为检查与SHI加速相关的电离动力学的额外工具,揭示了激光强度是在脉冲持续时间内Au离子加速的关键参数。采用双层靶材可以在不牺牲加速场强度的情况下延长加速时间,有利于高能超重离子的产生。

Laser-plasma acceleration beyond wave breaking 超越破波的激光等离子体加速

Laser wakefield accelerators rely on the extremely high electric fields of nonlinear plasma waves to trap and accelerate electrons to relativistic energies over short distances. When driven strongly enough, plasma waves break, trapping a large population of the background electrons that support their motion. This limits the maximum electric field. Here we introduce a novel regime of plasma wave excitation and wakefield acceleration that removes this limit, allowing for arbitrarily high electric fields. The regime, enabled by spatiotemporal shaping of laser pulses, exploits the property that nonlinear plasma waves with superluminal phase velocities cannot trap charged particles and are therefore immune to wave breaking. A laser wakefield accelerator operating in this regime provides energy tunability independent of the plasma density and can accommodate the large laser amplitudes delivered by modern and planned high-power, short pulse laser systems.
激光尾流场加速器依靠非线性等离子体波的极高电场,在短距离内捕获并加速电子到相对论能量。当受到足够强的驱动时,等离子体波就会破裂,从而捕获大量支持它们运动的背景电子。这限制了最大电场。在这里,我们引入了一种新的等离子体波激发和尾流场加速制度,消除了这一限制,允许任意高的电场。该机制通过激光脉冲的时空成形实现,利用了具有超光速相速度的非线性等离子体波不能捕获带电粒子的特性,因此不受波破溃的影响。在这种状态下运行的激光尾流场加速器提供了独立于等离子体密度的能量可调性,并且可以适应现代和计划中的高功率短脉冲激光系统提供的大激光振幅。

A recently published scheme for inertial fusion based on instantaneous heating of an uncompressed fuel is criticized. It is shown that efficient fusion and time-like fusion burn propagation cannot be realized due to the low nuclear reaction cross-sections. The suggested use of nanospheres inside the volume of the target to support the fast heating of the fuel is also questioned.

We demonstrate that an ultrashort high intensity laser pulse can propagate for hundreds of Rayleigh ranges in a prepared neutral hydrogen channel by generating its own plasma waveguide as it propagates; the front of the pulse generates a waveguide that confines the rest of the pulse. A wide range of suitable initial index structures will support this "self-waveguiding" process; the necessary feature is that the gas density on axis is a minimum. Here, we demonstrate self-waveguiding of pulses of at least $1.5times10^{17} W/cm^2$ (normalized vector potential $a_0sim0.3)$ over 10 cm, or $sim100$ Rayleigh ranges, limited only by our laser energy and length of our gas jet. We predict and observe characteristic oscillations corresponding to mode-beating during self-waveguiding. The self-waveguiding pulse leaves in its wake a fully ionized low density plasma waveguide which can guide another pulse injected immediately following; we demonstrate optical guiding of such a follow-on probe pulse
我们证明了超短高强度激光脉冲可以在制备的中性氢通道中通过产生自己的等离子体波导来传播数百个瑞利范围;脉冲的前端产生一个波导,限制了脉冲的其余部分。广泛的合适的初始折射率结构将支持这种“自波导”过程;必要的特征是轴上的气体密度最小。在这里,我们演示了脉冲的自波导至少为$1.5times10^{17} W/cm^2$(归一化向量势$a_0sim0.3)$超过10 cm,或$sim100$瑞利范围,仅受激光能量和气体射流长度的限制。我们预测并观察了自波导过程中与模式跳动相对应的特征振荡。自波导脉冲在其尾迹中留下一个完全电离的低密度等离子体波导,该波导可以引导紧随其后注入的另一个脉冲;我们演示了这种后续探针脉冲的光学引导

A generalized Boltzmann kinetic theory for strongly magnetized plasmas with application to friction 强磁化等离子体的广义玻尔兹曼运动理论及其在摩擦中的应用

Coulomb collisions in plasmas are typically modeled using the Boltzmann collision operator, or its variants, which apply to weakly magnetized plasmas in which the typical gyroradius of particles significantly exceeds the Debye length. Conversely, O'Neil has developed a kinetic theory to treat plasmas that are so strongly magnetized that the typical gyroradius of particles is much smaller than the distance of closest approach in a binary collision. Here, we develop a generalized collision operator that applies across the full range of magnetization strength. To demonstrate novel physics associated with strong magnetization, it is used to compute the friction force on a massive test charge. In addition to the traditional stopping power component, this is found to exhibit a transverse component that is perpendicular to both the velocity and Lorentz force vectors in the strongly magnetized regime, as was predicted recently using linear response theory. Good agreement is found between the collision theory and linear response theory in the regime in which both apply, but the new collision theory also applies to stronger magnetization strength regimes than the linear response theory is expected to apply in.
等离子体中的库仑碰撞通常使用玻尔兹曼碰撞算符或其变体进行建模,这些算符适用于弱磁化等离子体,其中粒子的典型回旋半径明显超过德拜长度。相反,奥尼尔发展了一种动力学理论来处理被强烈磁化的等离子体,这种等离子体的典型陀螺半径比双星碰撞中最接近的距离小得多。在这里,我们开发了一个适用于整个磁化强度范围的广义碰撞算符。为了证明与强磁化相关的新物理,它被用于计算大质量测试电荷上的摩擦力。除了传统的停止功率分量外,还发现在强磁化状态下存在垂直于速度和洛伦兹力矢量的横向分量,正如最近使用线性响应理论所预测的那样。碰撞理论和线性响应理论在两者都适用的情况下有很好的一致性,但新的碰撞理论也适用于比线性响应理论更强的磁化强度情况。

Solving the problem of overdetermination of quasisymmetric equilibrium solutions by near-axis expansions. I. Generalized force balance 用近轴展开法求解准对称平衡解的过定问题。一、广义力平衡

It is well known that the process of construction of quasisymmetric magnetic fields in magnetostatic equilibrium with isotropic pressure suffers from the problem of overdetermination. This has led to the widespread belief that global quasisymmetric solutions are likely not to exist. We develop a general near-axis expansion procedure that does not rely on the assumption of magnetostatic equilibria with isotropic pressure. We then demonstrate that in equilibria with anisotropic pressure, it is possible to circumvent the problem of overdetermination and carry out the power-series solutions to higher order. This suggests, contrary to current belief, that the existence of globally quasisymmetric fields is likely if one relaxes the assumption of magnetostatic equilibria with isotropic pressure.
众所周知,在各向同性压力下的静磁平衡中,准对称磁场的构造过程存在超定问题。这导致人们普遍认为,全球准对称解很可能不存在。我们开发了一个通用的近轴膨胀程序,它不依赖于各向同性压力下的静磁平衡假设。然后,我们证明了在具有各向异性压力的平衡态中,可以绕过超定问题并进行高阶幂级数解。这表明,与目前的看法相反,如果放宽具有各向同性压力的静磁平衡假设,则可能存在全局准对称场。

Analytical model for quasi-linear flow response to resonant magnetic perturbation in resistive-inertial and viscous-resistive regimes 电阻-惯性和粘阻状态下共振磁扰动的准线性流动响应解析模型

In this work, a quasi-linear model for plasma flow response to the resonant magnetic perturbation (RMP) in a tokamak has been rigorously developed in the resistive-inertial (RI) and viscous-resistive (VR) regimes purely from the two-field reduced MHD model. Models for plasma response to RMP are commonly composed of equations for the resonant magnetic field response (i.e. the magnetic island) and the torque balance of plasma flow. However, in previous plasma response models, the magnetic island and the torque balance equations are often derived separately from reduced MHD and full MHD equations, respectively. By contrast, in this work we derive both the magnetic island response and the torque balance equations in a quasi-linear model for plasma flow response entirely from a set of two-field reduced MHD equations. Such a quasi-linear model can recover previous plasma flow response models within certain limits and approximations. Furthermore, the physical origins of quasi-linear forces and moments in the flow response equation are also accurately calculated and clarified self-consistently.
在这项工作中,在电阻-惯性(RI)和粘-电阻(VR)制度下,严格地建立了一个准线性模型,用于托卡马克中等离子体流动对共振磁扰动(RMP)的响应,这完全来自于两场简化的MHD模型。等离子体对RMP的响应模型通常由共振磁场响应方程(即磁岛)和等离子体流转矩平衡方程组成。然而,在以往的等离子体响应模型中,磁岛方程和转矩平衡方程往往分别由简化MHD方程和满MHD方程推导而来。相比之下,我们在等离子体流动响应的准线性模型中,完全从一组两场简化的MHD方程中推导出磁岛响应和转矩平衡方程。这种准线性模型可以在一定的限制和近似范围内恢复以前的等离子体流动响应模型。此外,对流动响应方程中拟线性力和矩的物理来源也进行了精确的计算和自洽的澄清。

Models for plasma response to RMP are commonly composed of equations for the resonant magnetic field response (i.e. the magnetic island) and the torque balance of plasma flow. However, in previous plasma response models, the magnetic island and the torque balance equations are often derived separately from reduced MHD and full MHD equations, respectively.
