Generation and measurement of sub-micrometer relativistic electron beams

Rasmus Ischebeck, Eugenio Ferrari, Christian David

The generation of low-emittance electron beams has received significant interest in recent years. Driven by the requirements of X-ray-free electron lasers, the emittance of photocathode injectors has been reduced significantly, with corresponding increase ...

Collisional damping rates for electron plasma waves reassessed

Stephan Brunner, Trach-Minh Tran

Collisional damping of electron plasma waves, the primary damping for high phase velocity waves, is proportional to the electron-ion collision rate, nu(ei,th). Here, it is shown that the damping rate normalized to nu(ei,th) depends on the charge state, Z, ...

Vlasov simulations of electron-ion collision effects on damping of electron plasma waves

Stephan Brunner, Trach-Minh Tran

Collisional effects can play an essential role in the dynamics of plasma waves by setting a minimum damping rate and by interfering with wave-particle resonances. Kinetic simulations of the effects of electron-ion pitch angle scattering on Electron Plasma ...

In tokamak fusion plasmas, micro-turbulence transport is known to be the cause of large losses of heat and particles. The present work deals with the study of electrostatic micro-turbulence transport driven by instabilities of essentially two types: the io ...

Multi-dimensional Vlasov simulations and modeling of trapped-electron-driven filamentation of electron plasma waves

Stephan Brunner

Kinetic simulations of two-dimensional finite-amplitude electron plasma waves are performed in a one-wavelength long system. A systematic study of the most unstable linear sideband mode, in particular its growth rate gamma and wavenumber k(y), is carried o ...

Electron and ion kinetic effects on non-linearly driven electron plasma and ion acoustic waves

Stephan Brunner

Fully non-linear kinetic simulations of electron plasma and ion acoustic waves (IAWs) have been carried out with a new multi-species, parallelized Vlasov code. The numerical implementation of the Vlasov model and the methods used to compute the wave freque ...

Solvent rearrangements during the transition from hydrophilic to hydrophobic solvation

Majed Chergui, Ursula Röthlisberger, Ivano Tavernelli, Thomas James Penfold

We present an ab initio Born-Oppenheimer molecular dynamics study of the early time solvent dynamics after electron abstraction from aqueous iodide. An initial response occurs within ∼75 fs, corresponding to a water molecule sharing almost one electron wit ...

Design and implementation of a flexible beamline for fs electron diffraction experiments

Fabrizio Carbone, Giulia Fulvia Mancini, Saverio Pagano

Ultrafast Electron Diffraction (UED) has been widely used to investigate the structural dynamics of molecules and materials. Femtosecond (fs) electron bunches are used to obtain diffraction images of a specimen upon photo-excitation by a temporally delayed ...
