  1. 1. Laser-Driven Particle Acceleration - Improving Performance Through Smart Target Design

    Författare :Matthias Burza; Atomfysik; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; wakefield; ultra-relativistic; ultra-intense; TNSA; Terawatt; sheath; proton; polarimetry; plasma mirror; plasma; Petawatt; particle; oscillation; Normarski; micromachining; LWFA; laser; interferometry; electron; contrast; acceleration; bubble; Fysicumarkivet A:2012:Burza;

    Sammanfattning : Laser-driven particle acceleration makes use of sub-picosecond, pulsed, high-power laser systems, capable of producing intensities ~10^{19} W/cm^2 at the laser focus to form plasmas, and use ultra-relativistic and nonlinear dynamics to produce quasistatic acceleration fields. This allows electrons to be accelerated to ~100 MeV over sub-centimetre distances, while protons may be accelerated to the ~10 MeV regime. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Approaches to particle acceleration in intense laser-matter interaction

    Författare :Joel Magnusson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; particle-in-cell; nonlinear dynamics; laser; plasma; laser-matter interaction; particle acceleration;

    Sammanfattning : In the interaction of ultra-intense laser fields with matter, the target is rapidly ionized and a plasma is formed. The ability of a plasma to sustain acceleration gradients, orders of magnitude larger than achievable with conventional accelerators, has led to a great interest in laser-driven plasma-based particle acceleration and radiation generation, with applications in materials science, biology and medicine.

  3. 3. Fast ions and turbulent particle transport in tokamaks

    Författare :Frida Eriksson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NBI; numerical modelling; turbulence; drift waves; bump-on-tail; density peaking; Fusion plasma physics; wave-particle interaction;

    Sammanfattning : The presence of highly energetic (fast) ions, be it fusion born alpha particles or ions accelerated by auxiliary heating schemes, can affect the heating and transport of all particles in the plasma through two main mechanisms. First, fast ions may excite fast ion driven instabilities. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Acoustic Standing Wave Manipulation of Particles and Cells in Microfluidic Chips

    Författare :Andreas Lenshof; Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; acoustic particle manipulation; separation; ultrasound; cell handling; particle handling; lab on a chip; Microsystem technology; microfluidics; standing waves;

    Sammanfattning : The rise of MEMS and µTAS techniques has created a whole new family of microfluidic devices for a wide range of chemical and biomedical analyses to be performed on small Lab-on-a-chip platforms. The operations often include small samples of particle or cell suspensions on which separation, mixing, trapping or sorting is performed. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Cell and Particle Trapping in Microfluidic Systems Using Ultrasonic Standing Waves

    Författare :Mikael Evander; Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; acoustic particle manipulation; standing waves; trapping; ultrasound; cell handling; particle handling; Microsystem technology; lab on a chip; microfluidics;

    Sammanfattning : Analysis methods are currently being miniaturized in order to save time and money while achieving higher sensitivities. The ultimate goal is to create a lab-on-a-chip where all analysis steps and instruments can be automated and integrated into a single chip. LÄS MER
