Simulations of relativistic quantum plasmas using real-time lattice scalar QED

Journal Article Shi, Yuan ; Xiao, Jianyuan ; Qin, Hong ; ... - Physical Review E

Real-time lattice quantum electrodynamics (QED) provides a unique tool for simulating plasmas in the strong-field regime, where collective plasma scales are not well separated from relativistic-quantum scales. As a toy model, we study scalar QED, which describes self-consistent interactions between charged bosons and electromagnetic fields. To solve this model on a computer, we first discretize the scalar-QED action on a lattice, in a way that respects geometric structures of exterior calculus and U(1)-gauge symmetry. The lattice scalar QED can then be solved, in the classical-statistics regime, by advancing an ensemble of statistically equivalent initial conditions in time, using classical fieldmore »« less

Light propagation effects in QED: Effective action approach

Journal Article Cho, Y M ; Pak, D G ; Walker, M L ; ... - Physical Review. D, Particles Fields

The effects of light propagation in constant magnetic and electric backgrounds are considered in the framework of the effective action approach. We use the exact analytic series representation for the one-loop effective action of QED and apply it to the birefringence effect. Analytical results for the light velocity modes are obtained for the weak and the strong field regime. We present asymptotic formulas for the light velocity modes for the ultrastrong magnetic field which can be realized in some neutron stars.

Photon polarizability and its effect on the dispersion of plasma waves

Journal Article Dodin, I. Y. ; Ruiz, D. E. - Journal of Plasma Physics

High-frequency photons travelling in plasma exhibit a linear polarizability that can influence the dispersion of linear plasma waves. We present a detailed calculation of this effect for Langmuir waves as a characteristic example. Here, two alternative formulations are given. In the first formulation, we calculate the modified dispersion of Langmuir waves by solving the governing equations for the electron fluid, where the photon contribution enters as a ponderomotive force. In the second formulation, we provide a derivation based on the photon polarizability. Then, the calculation of ponderomotive forces is not needed, and the result is more general.

Three-wave scattering in magnetized plasmas: From cold fluid to quantized Lagrangian

Journal Article Shi, Yuan ; Qin, Hong ; Fisch, Nathaniel J. - Physical Review E

Large amplitude waves in magnetized plasmas, generated either by external pumps or internal instabilities, can scatter via three-wave interactions. While three-wave scattering is well known in collimated geometry, what happens when waves propagate at angles with one another in magnetized plasmas remains largely unknown, mainly due to the analytical difficulty of this problem. In this study, we overcome this analytical difficulty and find a convenient formula for three-wave coupling coefficient in cold, uniform, magnetized, and collisionless plasmas in the most general geometry. This is achieved by systematically solving the fluid-Maxwell model to second order using a multiscale perturbative expansion. Themore »« less
