Plasma Physics and Controlled Fusion is a monthly publication dedicated to the dissemination of original results on all aspects of plasma physics and associated science and technology.
Magnetized plasma studies are necessary for many applied studies, including laser-driven inertial fusion, modeling astrophysically relevant phenomena, and innovative industrial and medical applications.
In this paper we show, via Particle-in-Cell simulations, that attosecond electron bunches can be obtained using low-energy, ultra-short laser beams both in the self-injection and the controlled injection regimes at low plasma densities.
We review the contribution of diagnostics that directly sample the plasma to the advancement of knowledge of the physics of detachment and detached divertors, such as the characteristics of the various regimes, discovery and quantification of drifts and identification of convection of heat and particles.
The free particles, whose dynamics are calculated by the test particle method, are accelerated from a rarefied gas (almost a vacuum). We analyze the dependence of the particle spectra on the laser parameters: the laser peak intensity, focal spot size, and pulse duration.
Plasma Physics and Controlled Fusion™ covers all aspects of plasma physics research and discovery, and the technology that plasma research relies on.
This paper extends a 1D dynamic physics-based model of the scrape-off layer (SOL) plasma, DIV1D, to include the core SOL and possibly a second target. The extended model is benchmarked on 1D mapped SOLPS-ITER simulations to find input settings for DIV1D that allow it to describe SOL plasmas from upstream to target—calibrating it on a scenario ...
The properties of an Ar/C 2 H 2 dusty plasma (ion, electron and neutral particle densities, effective electron temperature and dust charge) in glow and afterglow regimes are studied using a volume-averaged model and the results for the glow plasma are compared with mass spectrometry measurements.
Plasma Physics and Controlled Fusion. Purpose-led Publishing is a coalition of three not-for-profit publishers in the field of physical sciences: AIP Publishing, the American Physical Society and IOP Publishing.
Ultrahigh-intensity laser-plasma physics provides unique light and particle beams as well as novel physical phenomena. A recently available regime is based on the interaction between a relativistic intensity few-cycle laser pulse and a sub-wavelength-sized mass-limited plasma target.
