Very low velocity ion slowing down in binary ionic mixtures: Charge- and mass-asymmetry effects

Abstract

A binary ionic mixture (BIM) in dense and hot plasmas of specific concern for inertial confinement fusion and white dwarf crust is considered as a target for incoming light ions with a velocity smaller than the thermal electron one. The given target stopping power, mostly BIM monitored, is specifically studied in terms of charge and mass asymmetry in its ionic component. The classical plasma target is worked out within a dielectric framework, and scanned with respect to density, temperature, and BIM composition.

Low velocity ion slowing down in a de-mixing binary ionic mixture

“…A sustained and widespread interest is currently documented for low velocity ion slowing down (LVISD) in binary ionic mixtures (BIM) (Tashev et al, 2008;Fromy et al, 2010) fully neutralized by an electron fluid jellium (Leger & Deutsch, 1988a, 1988b, 1992.…”
