静电无碰撞冲击相互作用产生强磁场

Interaction between electrostatic collisionless shocks generates strong magnetic fields

摘要:

采用多维粒子模拟方法研究了静电冲击波之间的正面碰撞。结果表明,冲击波的速度明显下降,并在相互作用后产生了强磁场。这种横向磁场是由于韦伯不稳定性所造成的压力各向异性,由于纵向电子加热,而冲击接近对方。最后,它表明,这种现象可以在实验室中探索与当前的激光设备在一个显着的参数范围内。

英文摘要:

The head-on collision between electrostatic shocks is studied via multi-dimensional Particle-In-Cell simulations. It is found that the shock velocities drop significantly and a strong magnetic field is generated after the interaction. This transverse magnetic field is due to the Weibel instability caused by pressure anisotropies due to longitudinal electron heating while the shocks approach each other. Finally, it is shown that this phenomenon can be explored in the laboratory with current laser facilities within a significant parameter range.
