  • Screening of High-Z Grains and Related Phenomena in Colloidal Plasmas
    Condensed Matter Physics, 2003, Vol. 6, No. 3(35), pp. 425–445 Screening of high-Z grains and related phenomena in colloidal plasmas O.Bystrenko, T.Bystrenko, A.Zagorodny Bogolyubov Institute for Theoretical Physics, 03143 Kiev, Ukraine Received April 3, 2003 Recent important results are briefly presented concerning the screening of high-Z impurities in colloidal plasmas. The review focuses on the phe- nomenon of nonlinear screening and its effects on the structure of colloidal plasmas, the role of trapped ions in grain screening, and the effects of strong collisions in the plasma background. It is shown that the above ef- fects may strongly modify the properties of the grain screening giving rise to considerable deviations from the conventional Debye-Huc¨ kel theory as dependent on the physical processes in the plasma background. Key words: high-Z impurity, charged colloidal suspension, dusty plasma, nonlinear screening, bound ionic states, strong collisions PACS: 52.25.Vy, 52.27.Lw, 52.65.-y 1. Introduction Screening of charged objects embedded in a plasma background is one of the important problems of plasma physics, which attracted the attention of researchers during decades. Our interest in this issue is connected, first of all, with its im- plications in spatial ordering phenomena in colloidal plasmas (CP) such as dusty plasmas (DP) or charged colloidal suspensions (CCS). CP consist of a large number of highly charged (Z 103 105) colloidal particles of submicron size immersed in a plasma background.'Experimen− ts have revealed a number of collective effects in CP, in particular, the formation of Coulomb liquids or crystals associated with the strong Coulomb coupling in the colloidal subsystem [1{5].

Abstract: This review summarizes the present status of an ongoing experimental effort to provide reliable rate coefficients for dielectronic recombination of highly charged iron ions for the modeling of astrophysical and other plasmas. The experimental work has been carried out over more than a decade at the heavy-ion storage-ring TSR of the Max-Planck- Institute for Nuclear Physics in Heidelberg, Germany. The experimental and data reduction procedures are outlined. The role of previously disregarded processes such as fine-structure core excitations and trielectronic recombination is highlighted. Plasma rate coefficients for dielectronic recombination of Feq+ ions (q = 7–10, 13–22) and Ni25+ are presented graphically and in a simple parameterized form allowing for easy use in plasma modeling codes. It is concluded that storage-ring experiments are presently the only source for reliable low-temperature dielectronic recombination rate-coefficients of complex ions.

The absolute recombination rate coefficients are derived in the centre-of-mass energy range of 0−25 eV. The experimental results are compared with intermediate-coupling AUTOSTRUCTURE calculations for 2s−2p (n = 0) core excitation and show very good agreement in the resonance energy positions and intensities. Trielectronic recombination with 2s2−2p2 transitions are clearly identified in the spectrum. Contributions from F5+ ions in an initial metastable state are also considered. The energy-dependent re- combination spectra are convoluted with Maxwell-Boltzmann energy distribution in the 103−106 K temperature range. The resulting temperature-dependent rate coefficients are compared with theoretical results from the literature. In the 103−104 K range, the calcu- lated data significantly underestimates the plasma recombination rate coefficients. Above 8 × 104 K, our AUTOSTRUCTURE results and plasma rate coefficients from elsewhere show agreement that is better than 25% with the experimental results.

  • Counting the Electrons in a Multiphoton Ionization by Elastic Scattering of Microwaves Received: 10 November 2017 A

Shneider3, X. Wang1, K. A. Rahman2 & A. Shashurin1 Accepted: 31 January 2018 Multiphoton ionization (MPI) is a fundamental frst step in high-energy laser-matter interaction and Published: xx xx xxxx is important for understanding the mechanism of plasma formation. With the discovery of MPI more than 50 years ago, there were numerous attempts to determine the basic physical constants of this process in direct experiments, namely photoionization rates and cross-sections of the MPI; however, no reliable data was available until now, and the spread in the literature values often reaches 2–3 orders of magnitude. This is due to the inability to conduct absolute measurements of plasma electron numbers generated by MPI, which leads to uncertainties and, sometimes, contradictions between MPI cross-section values utilized by diferent researchers across the feld. Here, we report the frst direct measurement of absolute plasma electron numbers generated at MPI of air, and subsequently we precisely determine the ionization rate and cross-section of eight-photon ionization of oxygen −130 −8 16 −1 molecule by 800 nm photons σ8 = (3.3 ± 0.3)×10 W m s . The method, based on the absolute measurement of the electron number created by MPI using elastic scattering of microwaves of the plasma volume in Rayleigh regime, establishes a general approach to directly measure and tabulate basic constants of the MPI process for various gases and photon energies.

  • Inhomogeneity Effect on Solitary Structures in a Magnetized Warm Plasma: Ionization Versus Recombination Jyoti1, Hitendra K

Malik*,1 and R. P. Dahiya2 1Plasma Waves and Particle Acceleration Laboratory, Department of Physics, Indian Institute of Technology Delhi, New Delhi – 110 016, India 2Centre for Energy Studies, Indian Institute of Technology Delhi, New Delhi – 110 016, India Abstract: In a magnetized inhomogeneous warm plasma having ionization/recombination, usual version of the KdV equation is found to be modified by two additional terms arising due to the inclusion of ionization/recombination and the density gradient in the plasma. The density gradient in the plasma shows its dependence on the ionization/recombination rate, ion-to-electron temperature ratio, obliqueness of the magnetic field and drift velocity of the ions. In the considered plasma, only the compressive solitary structures are found to propagate corresponding to two different types of modes. A significant effect of magnetic field and ion temperature is found on these structures in both the cases of ionization and recombination, though these structures show weak dependence on the charge of the ions. Interestingly the solitons with prominent tailing structures are evolved in the plasma under the effect of stronger density gradient and higher ionization or recombination. The tailing structure with bigger size evolves in the plasma in the case of only recombination, suggesting that the exchange/transfer of energy from the main soliton to its tail is on a greater scale in the case of recombination than the case of ionization.

  • Radiative and 3-Body Recombination in Alcator C-Mod

Radiative and 3-body recombination in the Alcator C-Mod divertor D. Lumma, J.L. Terry, and B. Lipschultz Plasma Fusion Center, Massachusetts Institute of Technology Cambridge, MA 02139, U.S.A. Significant recombination of the majority ion species has been observed in the divertor region of Alcator C-Mod under detached conditions. This determination is made by analysis of the visible spectrum from the divertor, in particular the Balmer series line emission and the observed recombination continuum, including an apparent recombination edge at -375 nm. The anal- ysis shows that the electron temperature in the recombining plasma is 0.8-1.5 eV. The measured volume recombination rate is comparable to the rate of ion collection at the divertor plates. The dominant recombination mechanism is 3-body recombination into excited states (e+e+D+ -* Do+e), although ra- diative recombination (e+D+ => Do+hv) contributes -5% to the total rate. Analysis of the Balmer series line intensities (from nu,,er,=3 through 10) shows that the upper levels of these transitions are populated primarily by recombination. Thus the brightnesses of the Balmer series (and Lyman se- ries) are directly related to the recombination rate. (PACS numbers 34.50.Dy, 34.80.Lx, 52.25.Ya, 52.55.Fa) 1 I.

We report on a real-time observation of the crossover between photon and exciton-polariton lasing in a semiconductor microcavity. Both lasing phases are observed at different times after a high-power excitation pulse. Energy-, time- and angle-resolved measurements allow for the transient characterization of carrier distribution and effective temperature. We find signatures of Bose–Einstein condensation, namely macroscoping occupation of the ground state and narrowing of the linewidth in both lasing regimes. The Bernard–Douraffourgh condition for inversion was tested and the polariton laser as well as the photon laser under continuous wave excitation were found to operate at estimated densities below the theoretically predicted inversion threshold.
