AbstractIn this paper, the electrons energy spectrum produced by stochastic acceleration in the interaction of an intense laser pulse with the underdense plasma is described by employing the fully kinetic 1D-3 V particle-in-cell simulation. In this way, two finite laser pulses with the same length 200 fs and with two different rise times 30 and 60 fs are typically selected. It is shown that the maximum energy of electrons in the laser pulse with the short rise time (30 fs) is about eight times greater than the maximum energy of the electrons with the long rise time (60 fs). Furthermore, unlike the pulse with the short rise time, the shape of energy spectrum and the electrons temperature in the long rise time laser pulse are approximately unchanged over the time. These results originated from the fact that in the case of long rise time laser pulse, all electrons are accelerated by the one chaotic mechanism because of the scattered fields generated in the plasma, but in the case of short rise time laser pulse, three different mechanisms accelerate the electrons: first, the stochastic acceleration because of the nonlinear wave breaking via plasma-vacuum boundary effect; second, the stochastic acceleration initiated by the wave breaking; and third, the direct laser acceleration of the released electrons.

We have analytically obtained the occupation probabilities on subbands of the hierarchical energy spectrum and the step heights of the integrated density of states for two-dimensional Fibonacci quasilattices. Based on the above results, the gap-labeling properties of the energy spectrum are found, which claim that the step height is equal to {mτ}, where the braces denote the fractional part, and m is an integer that can be used to label the corresponding energy gap. Numerical results confirm these results very well.

In this paper, the propagator of a two-dimensional Dirac oscillator in the presence of a uniform electric field is derived by using the path integral technique. The fact that the globally named approach is used in this work redirects, beforehand, our search for the propagator of the Dirac equation to that of the propagator of its quadratic form. The internal motions relative to the spin are represented by two fermionic oscillators, which are described by Grassmannian variables, according to Schwinger’s fermionic model. Once the integration over the anticommuting variables (Grassmannian variables) is accomplished, the problem becomes the one of finding a non-relativistic propagator with only bosonic variables. The energy spectrum of the electron and the corresponding eigenspinors are also obtained in this work.

By reaching the first wall of a fusion reactor, charged plasma particles, electrons and ions are recombined into neutral molecules and atoms of hydrogen isotopes. These species recycle back into the plasma volume and participate, in particular, in charge–exchange (cx) collisions with ions. As a result, hot atoms with chaotically directed velocities are generated and some of them hit the wall. Statistical Monte Carlo methods often used to model the behavior of cx atoms are too time-consuming for comprehensive parameter studies. Recently1 an alternative iteration approach to solve one-dimensional kinetic equation2 has been significantly accelerated, by a factor of 30–50, by applying a pass method to evaluate the arising integrals from functions, involving the ion velocity distribution. Here, this approach is used by solving a two-dimensional kinetic equation, describing the transport of cx atoms in the vicinity of an opening in the wall, e.g., the entrance of a duct guiding to a diagnostic installation. To assess the erosion rate and lifetime of the installation, one need to know the energy spectrum of hot cx atoms escaping from the plasma into the duct. Calculations are done for a first mirror of molybdenum under plasma conditions expected in a fusion reactor like DEMO.3,4 The results of kinetic modeling are compared with those found by using a diffusion approximation5 relevant for cx atoms if the time between cx collisions with ions is much smaller than the time till the ionization of atoms by electrons. The present more exact kinetic consideration predicts a mirror erosion rate by a factor of 2 larger than the approximate diffusion approach.
