Superintense laser-plasma interaction theory primer / Andrea Macchi

Public ISBD Titre : Superintense laser-plasma interaction theory primer Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Andrea Macchi, Auteur Editeur : Dordrecht : Springer Année de publication : 2013 Collection : SpringerBriefs in physics, ISSN 2191-5423 Importance : 1 vol. (viii-114 p.) Présentation : ill Format : 24 cm ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-94-007-6124-7 Note générale : Sommaire et resume disponibles sur le site de l'editeur [consulte le 2013-07-16] references Langues : Anglais (eng) Catégories : 05-15-Rayons et microscopiques. Mots-clés : Laser-plasma interactions  Interactions laser-plasma. Index. décimale : 05-15-02fp Résumé : The continuous trend towards higher and higher laser intensities has opened the way to new physical regimes and advanced applications of laser-plasma interactions, thus stimulating novel connections with ultrafast optics, astrophysics, particle physics, and biomedical applications. This book is primarily oriented towards students and young researchers who need to acquire rapidly a basic knowledge of this active and rapidly changing research field. To this aim, the presentation is focused on a selection of basic models and inspiring examples, and includes topics which emerged recently such as ion acceleration, "relativistic engineering" and radiation friction. The contents are presented in a self-contained way assuming only a basic knowledge of classical electrodynamics, mechanics and relativistic dynamics at the undergraduate (Bachelor) level, without requiring any previous knowledge of plasma physics. Hence, the book may serve in several ways: as a compact textbook for lecture courses, as a short and accessible introduction for the newcomer, as a quick reference for the experienced researcher, and also as an introduction to some nonlinear mathematical methods through examples of their application to laser-plasma modeling.
