Journal ArticleDOI
Time‐resolved proton focus of a high‐power ion diode
D. J. Johnson,R. J. Leeper,William A. Stygar,Rebecca S. Coats,Thomas Alan Mehlhorn,J. P. Quintenz,S. A. Slutz,M. A. Sweeney +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, an improved understanding of the factors that control axial focus of applied-B ion diodes was obtained from time-resolved diagnostics of ion-beam trajectories.
Journal ArticleDOI
Simulation codes for light-ion diode modeling
J. P. Quintenz,David B. Seidel,M.L. Kiefer,Timothy D. Pointon,Rebecca S. Coats,S.E. Rosenthal,Thomas Alan Mehlhorn,Michael P. Desjarlais,N. A. Krall +8 more
TL;DR: The computational tools used in the investigation of light-ion diode physics at Sandia National Laboratories are described in this paper. But the authors do not discuss the performance of their experiments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evolution and control of ion-beam divergence in applied-B diodes.
Michael P. Desjarlais,Timothy D. Pointon,David B. Seidel,Rebecca S. Coats,M.L. Kiefer,J. P. Quintenz,S. A. Slutz +6 more
TL;DR: The time evolution of beam divergence induced by electomagnetic instabilities in applied-{ital B} ion diodes is examined using the 3D particle-in-cell code QUICKSILVER to limit the extent of the electron density profile evolution.
Journal ArticleDOI
A load-balancing algorithm for a parallel electromagnetic particle-in-cell code
TL;DR: A new algorithm that balances the two computations independently of the field-solve and particle-push computations is proposed that has been implemented in the quicksilver electromagnetic particle-in-cell code.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electromagnetic particle‐in‐cell simulations of Applied‐B proton diodes
TL;DR: In this article, the magic code was used to simulate particle-in-cell simulations of Applied-B ion diodes and the results of these simulations were compared to experimental data on applied-b ion diode and to analytic theories of their operation.
