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.
In order to get the fusion of small capsules containing a deuterium-tritium nuclear fuel, the MegaJoule laser (LMJ) will focus a large number of laser beams inside a cylinder (Hohlraum) which contains the fusion capsule. In order to control this process we have to know as well as possible the electromagnetic field created by the laser beams on both Hohlraum’s apertures. This article describes a numerical tool which computes this electromagnetic field...
In this article we implement different numerical schemes to simulate the Schrödinger-Debye equations that occur in nonlinear optics. Since the existence of blow-up solutions is an open problem, we try to compute such solutions. The convergence of the methods is proved and simulations seem indeed to show that for at least small delays self-focusing solutions may exist.
