Interaction of ultra relativistic fireball beam with plasma
Ab initio simulations of the propagation in a plasma of a soon to be available relativistic electron–positron beam or fireball beam provide an effective mean for the study of microphysics relevant to astrophysical scenarios.

Numerical simulations of generation of high-energy ion beams driven by a petawatt femtosecond laser
This contribution presents results of a Particle-in-Cell simulation of ion beam acceleration via the interaction of a petawatt 25 fs laser pulse of high intensity (up to ~1021 W/cm2) with thin hydrocarbon (CH) and erbium hydride (ErH3) targets of equal ...

Particle Acceleration in Mildly Relativistic Outflows of Fast Energetic Transient Sources
Recent discovery of fast blue optical transients (FBOTs)—a new class of energetic transient sources—can shed light on the long-standing problem of supernova—long gamma-ray burst connections.

Particle-in-Cell Simulations of the Lasertron [PDF]
The lasertron is a device (either rf or dc) for producing intense, very short, pulsed electron beams (tens of picoseconds). In the dc lasertron, a laser is pulsed repetitively onto a photoemissive cathode. In general, the current is not space-charge limited and follows the laser intensity.

Characteristics of Pseudospark Discharge in Particle-in-Cell Simulations [PDF]
In this article, the characteristics of the pseudospark (PS) discharge were studied through particle-in-cell simulations with the consideration of the external circuit. The different discharge stages, including the Townsend discharge, hollow cathode discharge, and super-dense glow, were characterized by the discharge voltage and current. The sources of

The Gary Picture of Short-Wavelength Plasma Turbulence—The Legacy of Peter Gary
Collisionless plasmas in space often evolve into turbulence by exciting an ensemble of broadband electromagnetic and plasma fluctuations. Such dynamics are observed to operate in various space plasmas such as in the solar corona, the solar wind, as well ...

Interaction between electrostatic collisionless shocks generates strong magnetic fields
The head-on collision between electrostatic shocks is studied via multi-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations. A strong magnetic field develops after the interaction, which causes the shock velocities to drop significantly.
