Observation of internal quantum dynamics relies on correlations between the system being observed and the measurement apparatus. We propose using the center-of-mass (c.m.) degrees of freedom of atoms and molecules as a "built-in" monitoring…
This paper uses extended-magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) simulations to explore an extreme magnetized plasma regime realisable by cylindrical implosions on the OMEGA laser facility. This regime is characterized by highly compressed magnetic…
In metallic nanoparticles, the cluster geometric structures control the particle's electronic band structure, polarizability, and catalytic properties. Analyzing the structural properties is a complex problem; the structure of an assembled…
The physics governing electron acceleration by a relativistically intense laser are not confined to the critical density surface, they also pervade the sub-critical plasma in front of the target. Here, particles can gain many times the…
The propagation and energy coupling of intense laser beams in plasmas are critical issues in laser-driven inertial confinement fusion. Applying magnetic fields to such a setup has been evoked to enhance fuel confinement and heating, and…
We study the laser-driven acceleration of electrons from overdense hydrogen clusters to energies of up to 13 MeV in laser forward direction and several hundreds of keV in an outer ring-like structure. The use of cryogenic hydrogen allows…
The harmonic emission from cluster nanoplasmas subject to short, intense infrared laser pulses is analyzed by means of particle-in-cell simulations. A pronounced resonant enhancement of the low-order harmonic yields is found when the Mie…
The interaction of intense extreme ultraviolet (XUV) laser pulses ($\lambda=32\rm\,nm$, $I=10^{11-14}$\,W/cm$^2$) with small rare-gas clusters (Ar$_{147}$) is studied by quasi-classical molecular dynamics simulations. Our analysis supports…
We present computer simulations of concentrated solutions of unknotted nonconcatenated semiflexible ring polymers. Unlike in their flexible counterparts, shrinking involves a strong energetic penalty, favoring interpenetration and…
We analyze the dynamics of up to $10^5$ electrons resulting from illuminating a Xenon cluster with 9093 atoms with intense laser pulses of different length and peak intensity. Interesting details of electron motion are identified which can…
Physical mechanisms of structural transformations in deposited metallic clusters exposed to an electron beam of a transmission electron microscope (TEM) are studied theoretically and computationally. Recent TEM experiments with…
The interaction between PTCDA (3,4,9,10-perylene-tetracarboxylic-dianhydride) molecules and solid rare gas samples is studied by means of fluorescence emission spectroscopy. On the one hand, laser-excited PTCDA-doped large argon, neon and…
We develop a microscopic model for the interaction of small rare gas clusters with soft X-ray radiation. It is shown that, while the overall charging of the clusters is rather low, unexpectedly high atomic charge states can arise due to…
We model strange metals as quantum liquids without quasiparticle excitations, but with slow momentum relaxation, and with slow diffusive dynamics of a conserved charge and energy. General expressions are obtained for electrical, thermal and…
With ENZO simulations run on the J\"ulich supercomputers, we have investigated the evolution of magnetic fields in the largest cosmic structures (namely galaxy clusters and filaments connecting them) with unprecedented dynamical range.…
The strong field approximation (SFA) formulated in terms of so-called "quantum orbits" led to much insight into intense-laser driven ionization dynamics. In plain SFA, the emitted electron is treated as a free electron in the laser field…
We present numerical simulations of galaxy clusters which include interaction processes between the galaxies and the intra-cluster gas. The considered interaction processes are galactic winds and ram-pressure stripping, which both transfer…
When a laser field is incident on an overdense plasma it is unable to penetrate inside it. Nevertheless, a part of its energy gets transferred to the electrons through a variety of mechanisms (e.g. vacuum and $\vec{J}\times \vec{B}) heating…
Using the embedded-atom method, the structure of small copper clusters on Au(111) electrodes has been investigated both by static and dynamic calculations. By varying the size of roughly circular clusters, the edge energy per atom is…
We simulate the collision of atomic clusters with a weakly attractive surface using molecular dynamics in a regime between soft-landing and fragmentation, where the cluster undergoes large deformation but remains intact. As a function of…
