Coaxial Gyromagnetic Nonlinear Transmission Line with a Slow-Wave Structure: 2D/3D FDTD Modeling

A coaxial gyromagnetic nonlinear transmission line (GNLTL) enables pulse-front compression and oscillation packet generation in the 0.3-10 GHz range. Numerical modeling of such systems typically employs a 2D axially symmetric FDTD scheme coupled with the parallel solution of full non-linearized Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equations. Previous studies have shown that using an insulating dielectric with a permittivity $\epsilon$>60 enables the generation of long-lasting oscillations via a Cherenkov-like effect. However, practical implementation is limited due to the severe high-frequency losses inherent in materials with such extreme permittivity, like water. To overcome this limitation and enhance performance, we propose a novel design utilizing a spiral central conductor to mimic a high-permittivity environment, with the ferrite placed inside the spiral. Due to the loss of axial symmetry, the FDTD model was extended to 3D coordinates. Simulations confirm that the spiral conductor configuration generates a prolonged oscillation packet similar to that of a high-permittivity dielectric waveguide, but with significantly reduced losses and improved energy transfer efficiency.

Improvement of Properties of Self-Injected and Accelerated Electron Bunch by Laser Pulse in Plasma

The accelerating gradients in conventional linear accelerators are currently limited to 100 MV per meter. Plasma-based accelerators have the ability to sustain accelerating gradients which are several orders of magnitude greater than that obtained in conventionalaccelerators. Due to the rapid development of laser technology the laser-plasma-based accelerators are of great interest now. Over the past decade, successful experiments on laser wakefield acceleration of electrons in the plasma have confirmed the relevance of this acceleration. Evidently, the large accelerating gradients in the laser plasma accelerators allow to reduce the size and to cut the cost of accelerators. Another important advantage of the laser-plasma accelerators is that they can produce short electron bunches with high energy.

Transformer ratio enhancement at wakefield excitation in blowout regime in plasma by electron bunch with semi-gaussian charge distribution

Using 2d3v code LCODE, the numerical simulation of nonlinear wakefield excitation in plasma by shaped relativistic electron bunch with charge distribution, which increases according to Gaussian charge distribution up to the maximum value, and then decreases sharply to zero, has been performed. Transformer ratio, as the ratio of the maximum accelerating field to the maximum decelerating field inside the bunch, and accelerating the wakefield have been investigated taking into account nonlinearity of the wakefield. The dependence of the transformer ratio and the maximum accelerating field on the length of the bunch was investigated with a constant charge of the bunch. It was taken into account that the length of the nonlinear wakefield increases with increasing length of the bunch. It is shown that the transformer ratio reaches its maximum value for a certain length of the bunch. The maximum value of the transformer ratio reaches six as due to the profiling of the bunch, and due to the non-linearity of the wakefield.

Effect of transition radiation and dispersion spreading at achievement of a large transformer ratio of driver-bunch energy into wakefield in a dielectric resonator accelerator

Possibility of increase of transformer ratio TR in the case of the profiled sequence of bunches at their injection in a two-beam electron-positron dielectric-resonator collider is considered. Unlike considered earlier the waveguide case, for which TR is equal to the doubled number of bunches of sequence which provide a contribution to the total wakefield, and which is limited by the effect of the group velocity, in a resonator this limitation is absent. For deri-vation in the case of resonator of TR, proportional to the number of bunches, as well as in the waveguide, the ratio of bunch charges is selected to be equal 1:3:5: ..., lengths of bunches, equal to the half of wavelength, interval be-tween bunches is multiple to the wavelength. The effect of transition radiation and dispersion spreading on the transformer ratio is studied by numerical simulation.
