Boundary conforming coordinates are commonly used in plasma physics to describe the geometry of toroidal domains, for example, in three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic equilibrium solvers. The magnetohydrodynamic equilibrium configuration…
The description of electron-electron scattering presents challenges in the microscopic modeling of the interaction of ultrashort intense laser pulses with solids. We extend the semiclassical approach based on the Vlasov equation [Phys. Rev.…
The discovery of laser wakefield acceleration in gaseous plasma was a major milestone that could lead to a significant reduction of size and cost of large electron accelerators. For higher-energy laser-driven electron acceleration guiding…
We investigate the mechanisms responsible for single-lobed versus double-lobed angular distributions of emitted $\gamma$-rays in laser-irradiated plasmas, focusing on how direct laser acceleration (DLA) shapes the emission profile. Using…
Recent extension of the topological ideas to continuous systems with broken time-reversal symmetry, such as magnetized plasmas, provides new insights into the nature of scattering-free topologically-protected surface plasma waves (TSPWs).…
Particularly for aneutronic fusion schemes, it is advantageous to manipulate the fuel species differently from one another, as well as expel ash promptly. The ponderomotive effect can be used to selectively manipulate particles. It is…
Kinetic plasma studies often require computing integrals of the velocity distribution over a complex-valued pole. The standard method is to solve the integral in the complex plane using the Plemelj theorem, resulting in the standard plasma…
The electric field is the driving force behind every plasma. Electric field induced second harmonic generation (E-FISH) is a diagnostic able to obtain the electric field with high temporal and spatial resolution, is considered non-invasive…
The linear collisionless plasma response to a zonal-density perturbation in quasisymmetric stellarators is studied, including the geodesic-acoustic-mode oscillations and the Rosenbluth--Hinton residual flow. While the geodesic-acoustic-mode…
We present a novel scheme for rapid quantitative analysis of debris generated during experiments with solid targets following relativistic laser-plasma interaction at high-power laser facilities. Experimental data indicates that predictions…
In this paper an extensive database of SPARC H-modes confinement predictions has been provided, to assess its variability with respect to few input assumptions. The simulations have been performed within the ASTRA framework, using the…
Turbulence driven by gyrokinetic instabilities is largely responsible for transport in magnetic fusion devices. To estimate this turbulent transport, integrated modeling codes often use mixing length estimates in conjunction with reduced…
In the present work, we study the geometric structures of the Rotating Shallow Water Magnetohydrodynamics (RSW-MHD) equations through a Lie group invariant Euler-Poincar\'e variational principle. In this geometric framework, we derive new,…
The magnetic plasma orbit control (MPOC) has been proposed for micro and nanosatellites in the sun-synchronous orbits (SSO) in the low earth orbit (LEO). This method utilizes the plasma drag force generated by the interaction between space…
Two-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations in the (radial-azimuthal) plane perpendicular to the axial direction of a cylindrical ExB Penning discharge are presented. The low-pressure discharge is self-consistently supported by plasma…
We apply topological methods to better understand how the magnetic field in the stellarator edge can be diverted away from the confined region. Our primary method is calculating the winding numbers of closed contours, which gives…
Far Infrared interferometry is the main diagnostics method for electron density measurements in medium sized tokamaks. The transverse density gradients of plasma produce refractive effect, and the probing radiation does not propagate along…
The electron velocity distribution function in the plasma, formed by gas ionization with a sub-nanosecond, hundreds of megawatts power level microwave pulse, is studied by a theoretical model and by numerical 3D simulations, the results of…
Laser-Wakefield Accelerators (LWFA) running at kHz repetition rates hold great potential for applications. They typically operate with low-energy, highly compressed laser pulses focused in high-pressure gas targets. Experiments have shown…
The transition between two-dimensional hydrodynamic turbulence and quasi-one-dimensional zonostrophic turbulence is examined in the modified Hasegawa-Wakatani system, which is considered as a minimal model of $\beta$-plane-like drift-wave…
