Description
Nuclear fusion enhancement ideas by strong laser fields.
Motivated by the nonlinear Schrödinger equation of Kostin we propose a novel method to
extract kinetic energy from an ensemble of quantum particles. This task is achieved by applying
external time-dependent forces governed by the phase of the wave function. In particular, we
demonstrate that a Gaussian wave packet climbing an appropriately designed inverted
harmonic oscillator potential...
he talk is connected to the Hungarian NAPLIFE (Nanoplasmonic Laser Inertial Fusion Experiment) collaboration and will discuss various aspects of the fusion target material development. Design considerations for a model target material - namely a nanocomposite consisting of nanoparticles doped into a polymer matrix - and its realization will be presented, along with results related to...
Laser induced Inertial Confinement Fusion has some
difficulties. In the NAPLIFE project our aim is to circumvent
these by new ideas from ultra-relativistic heavy ion reactions
and nanotechnology. We aim for time-like detonation to avoid
instabilities and slow spreading of the burning front and
regulate the light absorption in the target by implanted
nano-antennas.
Raman spectroscopy is widely used to characterize different materials through characteristic vibrations of their constituents. It is highly sensitive to changes in bonding configuration, crystalline structure, isotope content, or even internal stress. We report on Raman spectroscopic studies of structural transformations in urethane dimethacrylate/triethylene glycol dimethacrylate copolymer...
In the presence of an external electric field, electron-hole
pairs are amply created near the Dirac points in graphene. Due to the ef-
fective coupling constant being more than unity (2.2 for pristine graphene)
perturbative techniques are futile in describing the phenomenon. We
present a non-perturbative kinetic equation approach to describe the
creation of an electron-hole plasma in a...
We use the linear response theory to describe the inter-nuclear potential in dense early Universe
e ̄e-pair plasma. We account for nuclear motion perturbing plasma as a function of time. Prior
efforts are improved by inclusion of moving screening charge scattering in the dense plasma medium
and quantitative evaluation of the governing collision damping rate. We asses the influence of...
