Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Propagation of charged particle beams in a magnetized high density plasmas has been intensively investigated by theory and simulation. In the electron beam propagation under a strong magnetic field, we have found a new phenomenon, beam stagnation by a strong whistler wave. The physical mechanism for generation of such a large amplitude whistler wave has been clarified. The PIC simulations on ultra intense laser interaction with near critical density plasmas showed that two stream instability between high energy electrons and background electrons induces electromagnetic turbulence and the energy distribution becomes local Maxwellian due to the scattering by the electromagnetic fluctuations. We also evaluated electron beam guiding effect by a strong magnetic field in an ignition-realization-class conditions in fast ignition laser fusion. We have confirmed that applied kilo-tesla-class magnetic field effectively guides the electron beam and then enhances the heating efficiency.
