Abstract:
A new relativistic electromagnetic computer simulation code, with one spatial dimension, is described which explicitly follows right- and left-going electromagnetic waves by integrating along the characteristics of Maxwell’s equations. To illustrate its suitability for the study of laser-plasma interactions, simulations are discussed of the heating of plasma by two opposed lasers whose beat frequency drives a local plasma oscillation. Excellent agreement is obtained with analytic theory in the linear-response regime.
