چکیده

در این پژوهش، شکل‌گیری موج عقبه در برهمکنش پالس قوی لیزر با گاز با استفاده از نتایج کد شبیهسازی PIC بههمراه یونیزاسیون بررسی شده و نتایج با حالتی که پالس لیزر در پلاسمای پیشفرض منتشر می‌شود، مقایسه شده است. نتایج نشان میدهند که برخلاف نتایج قبلی که بهدلیل ایجاد نوسانات چگالی هنگام یونیزاسیون، به راهاندازی قوی ناپایداری رامان رو به جلو و به دنبال آن به مدوله شدن قوی پالس لیزر اشاره کرده بودند، اندازه میدان عقبه تولیدی در حالت انتشار پالس لیزر در گاز نسبت به پلاسما، بهشدت به شیب پالس لیزر وابسته است. علاوه بر آن برای پالس‌هایی با شیب تند، این دو مقدار تقریباً یکسان هستند. این در حالی است که برای پالس‌هایی با شیب ملایم‌تر، میدان عقبه در پلاسما دارای مقادیر بزرگتری بوده و برای پالسهای با شیب کمتر، دامنه میدان عقبه در گاز بزرگتر می‌باشد.

چکیده [English]

In the present work, the formation of the wakefield during the interaction of intense laser pulse with a gas medium has been investigated by using PIC simulation code, including the ionization process. The results have been compared with those corresponding to the case of the pre-formed plasma medium. Although in previously published works, the strong launch of forwarding Raman's instability was shown to be as a result of plasma density fluctuations during ionization and the subsequent strong laser pulse modulation, our results indicate that the wakefield amplitude in gas in comparison with plasma considerably depends on the laser pulse shape. For laser pulse with a high slope, the amplitude of the wake electric field is quite the same in gas and plasma mediums. However, as the slope of the laser pulse decreases (soft slope), the wakefield is generated with a larger amplitude in the plasma. A further decrease in the laser pulse slope leads to a larger wake electric field in gas than in a plasma environment.
