Abstract:
It has previously been observed that ion-acoustic waves exhibit two types of behaviour as the proportion of light ions in a mixed plasma is varied. Either the principal mode of the heavy ion plasma changes continuously into that of the light ion plasma, or it becomes too heavily damped to be observable while a second wave appears and develops into the principal light ion mode. A similar phenomenon is observed as the wavenumber or the ratio of electron temperature to ion temperature is changed. Criteria determining which behaviour occurs are derived by considering the form of the dielectric res

For inertial confinement fusion (ICF), a focused light ion beam (LIB) is required to propagate stably through a chamber to a target.

AbstractMonoenegetic ion beam generation from circularly polarized laser-pulse interaction with a double-layer target is considered. The front layer consists of heavy-ion plasma, and the rear layer is a small thin coating of light-ion plasma. Particle-in-cell simulation shows that the multi-dimensional effects in the ion radiation pressure acceleration are avoided and a highly monoenergetic light-ion beam can be produced. Our simulations reveal that the charge-mass ratio of heavy ions in the front layer and the thicknesses of both layers can strongly affect the proton energy spectra.

Abstract:
Wavelength dependent absorption in laser-plasma interactions was investigated by measuring the energy spectra of freely expanding plasmas in their asymptotic stage of expansion. The experiments were performed with both 1·06- and 0·53-μm-wavelength light incident on flat tantalum targets. The experimental conditions were chosen adequately to ensure that inverse bremsstrahlung was the dominating absorption mechanism. As a result it is found that the absorption is enhanced at the shorter wavelength by a factor of 1·3. Primarily this leads to a higher ionisation state of the plasma and higher kine

Abstract:
This paper describes the first results of a feasibility study undertaken at CERN to determine whether a laser-produced plasma can be used as a source of intense highly charged heavy ion beams. A variety of important measurements have been made, and the results are encouraging. Furthermore, a beam of highly charged light ions produced by the laser ion source has been accelerated successfully in a radio frequency quadrupole (RFQ) structure.

Abstract:
The effects of energetic treatments, crosslinking, and plasma modification on the surface mechanical properties and deformation behavior of ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) were examined in light of nanoindentation experiments performed with a surface force microscope. Samples of UHMWPE were subjected to relatively high-dose gamma irradiation, oxygen ion implantation, and argon ion beam treatment. A range of crosslinking was achieved by varying the radiation dose. In addition, low-temperature plasma treatment with hexamethyldisiloxane/O2 and C3F6 was investigated for comparison

Abstract:
AbstractSelf-trapping, stopping, and absorption of an ultrashort ultraintense linearly polarized laser pulse in a finite plasma slab of near-critical density is investigated by particle-in-cell simulation. As in the underdense plasma, an electron cavity is created by the pressure of the transmitted part of the light pulse and it traps the latter. Since the background plasma is at near-critical density, no wake plasma oscillation is created. The propagating self-trapped light rapidly comes to a stop inside the slab. Subsequent ion Coulomb explosion of the stopped cavity leads to explosive expul

Abstract:
Femtosecond laser pulses are capable of producing very high light intensities at moderate pulse energies. We study the laser light absorption at flux densities of 1017 W/cm2 and higher during the plasma formation and the plasma heating process. In the first stage multiphoton and collisional ionization dominate. Modification of the inverse bremsstrahlung absorption occur owing to ionization dephasing. In the second stage beam energy conversion is mainly by collisional absorption at normal incidence, and by resonance absorption at oblique illumination. Simultaneously strong electron heat conduct

Abstract:
Radio-frequency (RF) charged particle traps, such as the Paul trap or higher order RF multipole traps, may be used to trap quasi-neutral plasma. The presence of positive and negative plasma species mitigates the ejection of particles that occurs due to space charge repulsion. For symmetric species, such as a pair plasma, the trapped particle distribution is essentially equal for both species. For plasma with species of disparate charge-to-mass ratio, the RF parameters are chosen to directly trap the lighter species, leading to loss of the heavier species until sufficient net space charge devel

A new type of ion-beam diode, self-magnetically insulated, spherical plasma focus diode (SPFD), was developed. With the SPFD, three-dimensional focusing of an intense pulsed light-ion beam was obtained. Experiments and simulations were carried out to study the behavior of the SPFD. In the experiments, diagnostic results of the Rutherford scattering pinhole camera and the shadow-box showed that the ion beam was focused into a small cylindrical area with ∽0.5 mm in diameter and ∽2.5 mm in length. The average ion-beam current density at the anode surface was found to be ∽2 kA/cm2. In the simulati

Abstract:
Sputtering yields for tungsten under Be and Ne ion bombardment as well as angular dependencies of the sputtering yields were calculated using molecular dynamics simulation. The results for Ne are in good agreement with experimental data. The obtained results for Be-W sputtering are needed to calculate the impurity influx into the plasma when the divertor material - tungsten - is bombarded with Be ions in ITER tokamak plasma. A model that explains the universal behavior of near-threshold sputtering yields for light ion-induced sputtering of tungsten was proposed.

The techniques utilizing these spectrometers are, in principle, applicable to laser produced plasmas, especially in their expanding phase. The role of X-ray spectroscopy to produce useful data for atomic physics as well as for plasma diagnostics is emphasized.

The unstable mode frequencies and growth rates of both unstable light positive ions and heavy negative ions increase with the relative density of heavy negative ions. Moreover, the growth rate of unstable modes scales as the one-third power of the beam density. The growth rate of un

Abstract:
Inertial confinement fusion using light ion beams requires fast rise time, high power drivers. One technique to enhance a conventional pulsed power generator is to use a plasma erosion opening switch (PEOS) between the generator and the ion diode. Ideally, the PEOS conducts current until a current threshold is reached, then rapidly opens and delivers the inductively stored energy to the load on a short time scale. Experiments at the Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) used a PEOS to improve the Gamble II current rise time from 60 ns to 10 ns at 1 MA. Load voltages over 4 MV have been obtained (&gt
