Mathematical models for laser-plasma interaction

Rémi Sentis (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Similarity:

We address here mathematical models related to the Laser-Plasma Interaction. After a simplified introduction to the physical background concerning the modelling of the laser propagation and its interaction with a plasma, we recall some classical results about the geometrical optics in plasmas. Then we deal with the well known paraxial approximation of the solution of the Maxwell equation; we state a coupling model between the plasma hydrodynamics and the laser propagation. Lastly, we...

Solitary Waves and Electromagnetic Fields

Donato Fortunato (2008)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

Similarity:

Roughly speaking a solitary wave is a solution of a field equation whose energy travels as a localized packet; by soliton, we mean a solitary wave which exhibits some form of stability. In this respect solitary waves and solitons have a particle-like behavior and they occur in many questions of mathematical physics, such as superconductivity, phase transition, classical and quantum field theory, non linear optics, (see e.g. [37], [50], [56]). We are not interested in the study of a particular...

Waves of excitations in heterogeneous annular region II. Strong asymmetry

Kristóf Kály-Kullai, András Volford, Henrik Farkas (2003)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

Excitation wave propagation in a heterogeneous medium around a circular obstacle is investigated, when the obstacle is located very eccentrically with respect to the interfacial circle separating the slow inner and the fast outer region. Qualitative properties of the permanent wave fronts are described, and the calculated wave forms are presented.

Block-based physical modeling with applications in musical acoustics

Rudolf Rabenstein, Stefan Petrausch (2008)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

Block-based physical modeling is a methodology for modeling physical systems with different subsystems. Each subsystem may be modeled according to a different paradigm. Connecting systems of diverse nature in the discrete-time domain requires a unified interconnection strategy. Such a strategy is provided by the well-known wave digital principle, which had been introduced initially for the design of digital filters. It serves as a starting point for the more general idea of blockbased...
