Photometric Diagnostic of the Sheath Dynamics and Electron Density Trends in Single and Dual Frequency CCRF Argon Plasmas

Contributions to Plasma Physics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A methodological study is presented on a noninvasive photometric diagnostic for determining trends in electron density and sheath dynamics in single (1f) and a dual (2f) radio frequency capacitively coupled (CCRF) argon plasmas. The 1f discharges are operated at 13.56 and 27.12 MHz, respectively, while the 2f discharge is driven by both ...

Ultrafast Transitions in X‐Ray Irradiated Solids

Contributions to Plasma Physics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this review, we present current developments on modeling ultrafast transitions in solids triggered by intense, atto‐ to femtosecond pulses from X‐ray free electron lasers. This specific irradiation regime requires dedicated simulation tools based on theoretical and computational methods, involving the elements of classical and quantum ...

Contribution of coherent electron production to measurements of heavy-flavor decayed electrons in heavy-ion collisions

European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields
Heavy quarks, produced at early stages of heavy-ion collisions, are an excellent probe of the Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) also created in these collisions. Electrons from open heavy-flavor hadron decays (HFE) are good proxies for heavy quarks, and have been

Coupling Fluid Neutrals to Gyrokinetic Plasma Dynamics for Edge and SOL Turbulence Simulations

Contributions to Plasma Physics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Accurate modeling of turbulent transport in magnetic confinement fusion devices requires extending first‐principles gyrokinetic simulations from the core to the edge and scrape‐off layer (SOL), where additional physics—particularly plasma–neutrals interactions—must be included.

Heat Load Mitigation Studies in the W7‐X Stellarator Experiment

Contributions to Plasma Physics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT During the experiments at the stellarator Wendelstein 7‐X (W7‐X) with fully water‐cooled plasma‐facing components (PFC), including carbon‐fiber composite (CFC) divertor targets with a thermal load capability of 10 MW/m2, high performance was achieved.

Stopping Power of Electron Liquid for Slow Quantum Projectiles

Contributions to Plasma Physics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We revisit the problem of the deceleration of a charge moving in a medium. In the low‐velocity limit of the projectile, we construct the fully nonlinear (in the charge–target interaction) theory of the stopping power (SP), which goes beyond the classical Ehrenfest dynamics.

Improved Conservative Scheme for Lenard‐Bernstein Collisions in Gyrokinetic Turbulence Simulations

Contributions to Plasma Physics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Turbulence in the edge and scrape‐off layer regions plays a critical role for the performance of future magnetic confinement fusion power plants. Gyrokinetic simulations allow studying this regime with high fidelity. A key aspect in these regions is the high concentration of impurities, which can radiate energy, leading to significant losses ...

Backward Plasma Acceleration of Aluminum, Copper, Silver, and Tantalum Ions From 1010 up to 1015 W/cm2 Pulse Laser Intensity

Contributions to Plasma Physics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Measurements of ion acceleration in laser‐generated plasma obtained at intensities from 1010 up to 1015 W/cm2 using IR laser ablation of aluminum, copper, silver, and tantalum in high vacuum are presented. At low intensity, data were acquired from the MIFT Department of Messina University (Italy) using a Q‐switched Nd:YAG laser operating at ...

Advantages of Pulsed Laser Ion Source (LIS) at an Intensity of About 1010 W/cm2 for Heavy‐Ion Injection Into High‐Energy Accelerators

Contributions to Plasma Physics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT At the Laser Plasma Physics laboratories of the University of Messina, an experimental platform for generating and accelerating low‐energy ions (keV) using pulsed lasers and for their potential applications has been put into operation. A Q‐switched Nd:YAG laser produces the beam for the system, operating at 1064 nm.

Monitoring Injected Drug Use in Greece Through Syringe Residue Analysis: A Multicity Study Within the ESCAPE Network

Drug Testing and Analysis, EarlyView.
A total of 2121 used syringes were analyzed in Athens, Thessaloniki, and Patras between 2022 and 2024. Distinct drug‐use patterns were observed across the three cities. Benzodiazepines, pregabalin, methadone, and fentanyl were increasingly detected in 2024.
