Ionization-induced electron trapping in ultrarelativistic plasma wakes

The onset of trapping of electrons born inside a highly relativistic, 3D beam-driven plasma wake is investigated. Trapping occurs in the transition regions of a Li plasma confined by He gas. Li plasma electrons support the wake, and higher ionization potential He atoms are ionized as the beam is focused by Li ions and can be trapped. As the wake amplitude is increased, the onset of trapping is observed. Some electrons gain up to 7.6 GeV in a 30.5 cm plasma. The experimentally inferred trapping threshold is at a wake amplitude of 36 GV/m, in good agreement with an analytical model and PIC simulations.     

Propagation properties of beams generated by Gaussian mirror resonator in uniaxial crystals

Based on the paraxial vectorial theory of beams propagating in uniaxially anisotropic media, we have derived the analytical propagation equations of beams generated by Gaussian mirror resonator (GMR) in uniaxial crystals, and given the typical numerical example to illustrate our analytical results. Due to the anisotropy crystals, the ordinary and extraordinary beams originated by incident beams generated by GMR propagate with different diffraction lengths, thus the linear polarization state and axial symmetry of the incident beams generated by GMR do not remain during propagating in crystals.

Exploring Microstructures and Interphase Properties of Surface- Grafted Diblock Copolymers in a Homopolymer Melt by Self-Consistent Field Theory Simulations

Polymeric self-consistent field theory is used to investigate microstructures and interphase properties of diblock copolymers grafted onto solid surfaces in a homopolymer melt. The calculations show that the grafted diblock copolymers can self-assemble into hemispherical microstructures at low grafting densities of the diblock copolymers. The morphology transforms into hemicylinder-like and sandwich-like lamellar microstructures with an increase in the chain-grafting density. The effective thickness of the grafted block layer and the interphase width between the homopolymer melt and the grafted copolymers strongly depend on the physicochemical parameters of the system, such as the composition of the grafted copolymer, the chemical incompatibility between the different components, the length ratio of grafted copolymer to homopolymer, and the grafting density of the diblock copolymers. In addition, the above computational results of microphase-separated structures and interphase properties are qualitatively compared with our previous experimental observations. The comparison indicates that our theoretical results not only reproduce the general feature of the experimental observations, but also elucidate the internal structural information and complement the findings in the region of high grafting densities of diblock copolymers.     

Universal critical properties of the Eulerian bond-cubic model

We investigate the Eulerian bond-cubic model on the square lattice by means of Monte Carlo simulations,using an efficient cluster algorithm and a finite-size scaling analysis.The critical points and four critical exponents of the model are determined for several values of n.Two of the exponents are fractal dimensions,which are obtained numerically for the first time.Our results are consistent with the Coulomb gas predictions for the critical O(n) branch for n < 2 and the results obtained by previous transfer matrix calculations.For n=2,we find that the thermal exponent,the magnetic exponent and the fractal dimension of the largest critical Eulerian bond component are different from those of the critical O(2) loop model.These results confirm that the cubic anisotropy is marginal at n=2 but irrelevant for n < 2.     

Surface solitons at the interface between semi-infinite linear and thermal nonlinear optical media

We investigate numerically surface-wave solitons occurring at the interface between semi-infinite linear and thermal nonlinear optical media, with the refractive index of the linear medium being greater than that of the nonlinear medium (in the absence of light). We find that the threshold energy flows of the existence of the surface solitons depend on the linear refractive index difference of the two media. Their fitting empirical formula has been obtained. Furthermore, we elucidate that the optical beams propagating in thermal nonlinear optical media, either as a single surface soliton or as a dipole surface soliton, can be attracted to the surface, even when launched from far away.     

Z箍缩驱动器与丝阵负载耦合特性研究

以丝阵内爆零维模型为基础,采用Pspice模拟行为建模方法,建立了丝阵内爆动态电感与Z箍缩驱动器耦合的全电路模型,实现驱动器放电过程与丝阵内爆过程的自洽求解,并研究了丝阵参数、电路参数对内爆过程的影响.结果表明:丝阵负载与驱动器存在强耦合关系,丝阵参数、电路参数对丝阵峰值箍缩电流、内爆时间、内爆动能影响很大;在驱动器参数不变,内爆时间不超过电路固有放电周期1/4的前提下,峰值箍缩电流、内爆时间、内爆动能随丝阵质量的增加而增大,内爆时间随丝阵初始半径的增加而增大;在丝阵参数不变时,随着驱动器等效电容的增大,内爆时间减小,丝阵内爆动能增大,但驱动器储能转化为内爆动能的效率却先增大后减小.对于特定的驱动器,优化的丝阵参数应使内爆过程充分利用驱动器固有放电周期的上升沿,使丝阵快速收缩的时间起点接近电路固有放电周期的四分之一,以获得最大的动能效率. 关键词： Z箍缩驱动器 零维内爆模型 模拟行为建模 耦合特性

Group velocity control of femtosecond pulse in folded dielectric axes structures by electro-optic effect

Theoretical investigation on the group velocity control of ultra-fast pulses by transverse electro-optic effect as well as its cascading and cubic nonlinearity is presented. Numerical simulation shows that the group velocity can be tuned via conveniently modulating the external electric field strength or the intensity of input pulse. The response of group velocity modulation is in proportion to these two factors, and the advancement or delay can reach the magnitude of 1–2 fractional pulses, which could be a potential scheme for controlling the velocity of pulse in future high speed and large-capacity communication networks.
