Title: Measurements of the momentum-dependence of plasmonic excitations in matter around 1 Mbar using an X-ray free electron laser

Abstract

We present measurements of the plasmon shift in shock-compressed matter as a function of momentum transfer beyond the Fermi wavevector using an X-ray Free Electron Laser. We eliminate the elastically scattered signal retaining only the inelastic plasmon signal. Our plasmon dispersion agrees with both the random phase approximation (RPA) and static Local Field Corrections (sLFC) for an electron gas at both zero and finite temperature. Further, we find the inclusion of electron-ion collisions through the Born-Mermin Approximation (BMA) to have no effect. Whilst we cannot distinguish between RPA and sLFC within our error bars, our data suggest that dynamic effects should be included for LFC and provide a route forward for higher resolution future measurements.

Plasmon resonance in warm dense matter

Journal Article Thiele, R ; Bornath, T ; Fortmann, C ; ... - Physics Review Letters, vol. 78, N/A, August 21, 2008, pp. 026411-1 to 026411-8

Collective Thomson scattering with extreme ultraviolet light or x-rays is shown to allow for a robust measurement of the free electron density in dense plasmas. Collective excitations like plasmons appear as maxima in the scattering signal. Their frequency position can directly be related to the free electron density. The range of applicability of the standard Gross-Bohm dispersion relation and of an improved dispersion relation in comparison to calculations based on the dielectric function in random phase approximation is investigated. More important, this well-established treatment of Thomson scattering on free electrons is generalized in the Born-Mermin approximation by including collisions. Wemore »« less

Plasmons in strongly coupled shock-compressed matter

Journal Article Neumayer, P ; Fortmann, C ; Doppner, T ; ... - Physical Review Letters

We present the first measurements of the plasmon dispersion and damping in laser shock-compressed solid matter. Petawatt laser produced K-{alpha} radiation scatters on boron targets compressed by a 10 ns-long 400 J laser pulse. In the vicinity of the Fermi momentum, the scattering spectra show dispersionless, collisionally damped plasmons, indicating a strongly coupled electron liquid. These observations agree with x-ray scattering calculations that include both the Born-Mermin approximation to account for electron-ion collisional damping and local field corrections reflecting electron-electron correlations.

Plasmon excitations in homogeneous neutron-star matter

Journal Article Baldo, M ; Ducoin, C - Physics of Atomic Nuclei

We study the possible collective plasma modes which can affect neutron-star thermodynamics and different elementary processes in the baryonic density range between nuclear saturation {rho}{sub 0} and 3{rho}{sub 0}. In this region, the expected constituents of neutron-star matter are mainly neutrons, protons, electrons, and muons (npe{mu} matter), under the constraint of beta equilibrium. The elementary plasma excitations of the pe{mu} three-fluid medium are studied in the RPA framework. We emphasize the relevance of the Coulomb interaction among the three species, in particular, the interplay of the electron and muon screening in suppressing the possible proton plasma mode, which is convertedmore »« less

Cluster ionization via two-plasmon excitation

Journal Article Bertsch, G F ; Van Giai, N ; Vinh Mau, N - Physical Review. A

We calculate the two-photon ionization of clusters for photon energies near the surface plasmon resonance. The plasmon is described in a schematic jellium-RPA model assuming a separable residual interaction between electrons determined so that the plasmon energy is reproduced. The ionization rate of a double plasmon excitation is calculated perturbatively. In Na{sub 93}{sup +} clusters we find an ionization rate of the order of at most 0.05-0.10 fs{sup -1}. This rate is used to determine the ionization probability in an external field in terms of the number of absorbed photon pairs and the duration of the field. We discuss themore »« less
