Mathematical models for laser-plasma interaction

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...

Nonlinear models for laser-plasma interaction

Thierry Colin, Mathieu Colin, Guy Métivier (2006-2007)

Séminaire Équations aux dérivées partielles

Similarity:

In this paper, we present a nonlinear model for laser-plasma interaction describing the Raman amplification. This system is a quasilinear coupling of several Zakharov systems. We handle the Cauchy problem and we give some well-posedness and ill-posedness result for some subsystems.

Uniform stabilization of a viscous numerical approximation for a locally damped wave equation

Arnaud Münch, Ademir Fernando Pazoto (2007)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

This work is devoted to the analysis of a viscous finite-difference space semi-discretization of a locally damped wave equation in a regular 2-D domain. The damping term is supported in a suitable subset of the domain, so that the energy of solutions of the damped continuous wave equation decays exponentially to zero as time goes to infinity. Using discrete multiplier techniques, we prove that adding a suitable vanishing numerical viscosity term leads to a uniform (with respect to the...

Numerical comparisons of two long-wave limit models

Stéphane Labbé, Lionel Paumond (2004)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

Similarity:

The Benney-Luke equation (BL) is a model for the evolution of three-dimensional weakly nonlinear, long water waves of small amplitude. In this paper we propose a nearly conservative scheme for the numerical resolution of (BL). Moreover, it is known (Paumond, Differential Integral Equations 16 (2003) 1039–1064; Pego and Quintero, Physica D 132 (1999) 476–496) that (BL) is linked to the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation for almost one-dimensional waves propagating in one direction. We study...
