Simulation results: Radiative cooling induced coherent maser emission in relativistic plasmas

<p>This repository contains some of the simulation data presented in the recent article titled <em>"Radiative cooling induced coherent maser emission in relativistic plasmas"</em> (<a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2409.18955" target="_new" rel="noopener">https://arxiv.org/abs/2409.18955</a>). The data available are from 2D particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations, which investigate the effects of radiative cooling in relativistic plasmas and its role in inducing coherent maser emission. The simulations were performed using OSIRIS, a massively parallel and fully-relativistic PIC code.</p> <p>The electric field data in the third direction (E3) included here has been spatially averaged by a factor of 8 in both directions, resulting in a dataset that reflects a resolution 64 times lower than the actual simulation. Additionally, the raw data includes only one two-thousandth of the simulated electron macro-particles. Also included is the phase space data in the x2, p2, and p3 dimensions.</p> <p>These datasets represent key aspects of the simulation results discussed in the paper, where the focus is on understanding the interplay between radiative losses and coherent emission mechanisms.</p> <p>More details on the simulations and the analysis of these results can be found in the corresponding article.</p>
