Impact of the mass and other parameters of charged particles on the results of laser resonance acceleration

Abstract

Theoretical and numerical analyses are presented concerning the conditions at whichthe charged particles of different masses can be accelerated to significant kinetic energy in the circularlypolarized laser or maser beams and a static magnetic field. The studies are carried out usingthe analytical derivations of the particles dynamics and theirs kinetic energy. The presented illustrationsenabled interpretation of the complex motion of particles and the possibilities of their acceleration.At the examples of an electron, proton and deuteron, the velocity, kinetic energy and trajectoryas a function of the acceleration time at the resonance condition are illustrated in the appropriategraphs. The particles with larger masses require the application of enhanced magnetic field intensityat the resonance condition. However, this field intensity can be significantly reduced if the particlesare preaccelerated.[b]Keywords[/b]: optoelectronics, acceleration of charged particles, laser, maser, relativistic dynamics, kineticenergy of a particle, electron, proton, deuteron
