Strong field interaction of laser radiation

A Pukhov - Reports on progress in Physics, 2002 - iopscience.iop.org
The Review covers recent progress in laser-matter interaction at intensities above 10 18 W
cm− 2. At these intensities electrons swing in the laser pulse with relativistic energies. The …

Weak nonlinear electromagnetic waves and low-frequency magnetic-field generation in electron-positron-ion plasmas

FB Rizzato - Journal of plasma physics, 1988 - cambridge.org
The weakly nonlinear localization of obliquely modulated high-frequency electromagnetic
waves in an electron-positron-ion plasma is considered. It is shown that the amplitude of the …

Collective stopping and ion heating in relativistic-electron-beam transport for fast ignition

M Honda, J Meyer-ter-Vehn, A Pukhov - Physical review letters, 2000 - APS
Filamented transport of laser-generated relativistic electron beams in a plasma is studied
with reference to fast ignition of fusion targets. The study is based on transverse two …

Nonlinear acoustic–gravity waves

L Stenflo, PK Shukla - Journal of plasma physics, 2009 - cambridge.org
Previous results on nonlinear acoustic–gravity waves are reconsidered. It turns out that the
mathematical techniques used are somewhat similar to those already adopted by the …

Steady vortices in plasmas and geophysical flows

J Nycander - Chaos: An Interdisciplinary Journal of Nonlinear …, 1994 - pubs.aip.org
A number of two-dimensional fluid models in geophysical fluid dynamics and plasma
physics are examined to find out whether they have steady and localized monopole vortex …

New stationary vortex solutions of the Hasegawa–Mima equation

J Nycander - Journal of plasma physics, 1988 - cambridge.org
Two different families of explicit stationary solutions of the Hasegawa–Mima equation are
obtained. In the first case the well-known modon (dipole vortex) is used as the zeroth-order …

Stationary propagating magnetic electron vortices

J Nycander, VP Pavlenko - Physics of Fluids B: Plasma Physics, 1991 - pubs.aip.org
The nonlinear theory of the magnetic electron mode is developed. It is shown that the model
equations describing this mode has stationary localized solutions of the monopole vortex …

Theory of magnetic field generation

H Saleem - Physical Review E, 1996 - APS
It is pointed out that fluctuating magnetic fields are generated on an ion time scale in laser-
induced plasmas in the limit ω≪ ω pe where ω is the perturbation frequency and ω pe is the …

A perturbation theory for the solitary-drift-vortex solutions of the Hasegawa-Mima equation

GE Swaters - Journal of plasma physics, 1989 - cambridge.org
A multiple-scales adiabatic perturbation theory is presented describing the adiabatic
dissipation of the solitary vortex-pair solutions of the Hasegawa-Mima equation. The vortex …

Spontaneous generation of magnetic fields in thin layers of stratified plasma

MI Kopp, AV Tur, VV Yanovsky - Physics of Plasmas, 2022 - pubs.aip.org
In this work, the processes of spontaneous generation of magnetic fields by Rayleigh–
Benard convection in a thin layer of plasma in a constant gravitational field are investigated …
