超冷中性等离子体的高分辨电离

High Resolution Ionization of Ultracold Neutral Plasmas

P. McQuillen, J. Castro, T. C. Killian

摘要:

集体效应,如波和不稳定性,是我们对大多数等离子体现象的理解不可或缺的。我们已经能够研究这些在超冷中性等离子体的初始密度分布,通过空间调制的电离激光强度的形状。我们描述了一个中继成像系统的光电离束,使我们能够创建更高的分辨率的功能和它的应用扩展到较短的波长的离子声波的观察。我们还描述了形成雕刻密度分布,以创建快速膨胀的等离子体进入真空和流动等离子体。

英文摘要:

Collective effects, such as waves and instabilities, are integral to our understanding of most plasma phenomena. We have been able to study these in ultracold neutral plasmas by shaping the initial density distribution through spatial modulation of the ionizing laser intensity. We describe a relay imaging system for the photoionization beam that allows us to create higher resolution features and its application to extend the observation of ion acoustic waves to shorter wavelengths. We also describe the formation of sculpted density profiles to create fast expansion of plasma into vacuum and streaming plasmas.
